cr0sh, I applaud you for your debt free lifestyle, but darn man
I have to admit that some things I have done in the past were stupid, and could have brought some harm were it not for taking care to sterilize instruments, and the use of antibiotics (thank you, Mexico); all of my "home surgeries" were minor in scope (think "mole removal").
Today, I am liable to see a doctor for anything needing more than a bandaid or some gauze; proof being the stitches I got for my hand, as well as some minor surgery I had done last year. My main concern today is the fact that I am getting older, and likely don't heal as well as before - no use risking a serious staph infection...
Fortunately, I am one who uses the services of a doctor rarely, beyond my dentist (I see him on a very regular basis, and have done so for nearly 20 years now).
