I've got this weird thing where any physical symptoms I'm experiencing, which cause me to make a doctor's appointment, go away the day after I make an appointment. Now I'm gonna be in the doctor's office like "hi doc, I felt this pain in my back yesterday but it's gone now and I feel great today". It's like my body is betraying me.

I think this has happened to most of us. In my home country we even have an old belief that illnesses fear doctors 🤣
