Male Stubbornness
Do any of you have any difficulty getting your DH to go to a doctor? My mom is struggling with getting my dad to go, and now I'm at a loss with my DH. He has lower back issues that I'm sure could probably be helped by a round or two of physical therapy. If he walks for more than 20 minutes without sitting or resting, his lower back starts hurting, which limits what we can do.
Ideas?
Re: Male Stubbornness
ugh YES!!! he hates the doctor and the dentist. I have to make apts for him and make sure he actually goes. He has really bad back problems too and our friend is a chiropractor. I had to make his apt and everything and finally he went. He was really happy and more comfortable when he got home. I thought it would make him less scared about going but he's still the same way!
I always tell him he is a whiny baby. Girls are so much stronger than guys, I dont care what anyone says!
My Blog!
H is very bad about going to the dr. Hates it even. He would much rather do homiopathic stuff, which is ok, but it only works if you know whats wrong, and to know whats wrong you need to go to the dr to get a diagnosis!
For a while his excuse was not having insurance, but I've added him to mine. Before the wedding I told him that as soon as he gets the card he is going to the dr (he has an issue that has been around for at least 2 years and we haven't gotten any aswers from the clinics & low income places we've gone). H does well with time frames. So I told him after his card came in that he had 2 weeks to call & make an appt or I would do it for him.
Have you tried the future appeal? Like if you want to have kids he's gonna wanna go out and play with them, and kids aren't gonna wanna sit and rest every 20 minutes. It'd be easier for him to get better before the kids arrive. Sorry if that doesn't really help your situation. I've learned with my H that there are certain things I can push him on and other I can't.
LoL, I'm glad I'm not the only one. Why do they have to be so stubborn???
Grr.
