Call doc!: Remember, all docs make good guesses based on your history and exam. Better guesses require more tests which can be expensive and/or painful. Your job, as a patient, is to let us know when our 1st good guess is not right! That's why docs say to follow up. We don't operate on all stomachaches because they might be appendicitis, for example, and you don't want us too! So call doc for re-check
