Coming home, almost immediately I noticed that people generally are either not at all or are ill-informed about their health and what to do or where to go about their symptoms. The information is coming from hearsay, a \u201cthis uncle or aunty told me\u201d situation more often than not. And for those that decide to look things up themselves, well, with so much out there and it can be difficult for the public to make sense of it all adding to the confusion. Although it is wonderful that people are taking more of an interest in their health now but often people are steered onto the wrong things by people who truly meant well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-pale-cyan-blue-background-color has-background\"><strong><em>That\u2019s what this blog is about.
