Don’t forget your health!
Hi everyone!
Around a month ago, I went to chapters and bought the book “The Merck Manual of Medical Information“. It’s a book that contains descriptions, causes, and treatment of many illnesses, a little like a medical library.
At first I bought it because of my science background, I thought having a reference of dieases and general biology/medial information would be a great companion to my science background. However the more I started using it, the more I realized that everyone should have this book! So far it’s been very helpful in diagnosing some of the problems my family and friends had, and it’s been a great resource for general health related knowledge such as stress and exercise!
The fall term is about to start soon, and I know that everyone is either very excited, motivated, or a bit nervous. We’re all very focused on the term ahead and wants to give it our all. That’s great! It’s wonderful to have such motivation, but during this exciting time of growth and opportunity, I would like to remind every to take care of themselves. Particularly since the H1N1 is due for a pretty big rebound in the fall.
I would like to help everyone by offering any knowledge from this book, if you have any questions just ask! But remember I’m not playing doctor here, just looking up information in a book! I will also be writing periodic posts about some information I think is pretty important here, like when you should see a doctor and stress!
I know this is a very important time to our personal and professional development, but don’t forget your health! Your health is like the lenses we see the world through. No matter how good your world is, it means nothing if you can’t see it clearly.
Good luck and take care!
