Description
Bad headache? Persistent cough? Think you're dying? Won't go to a doctor? Never seen your doctor? Like most blokes, you probably don't go to the doctor: you hope your symptoms are harmless and, luckily, you're usually right, but this doesn't stop you worrying about them, agitating, or annoying your partner. By providing step-by- step flowcharts to self diagnosis of all the common symptoms a bloke experiences, along with advice on what to do, this book will help sort you out - from drugs to depression to diarrhoea. A few seconds and you'll know what's wrong with you, whether you need urgent help, or just a couple of aspirin. Just check the flowcharts within, and all will become clear. With a non-preaching, down-to-earth approach, and an emphasis on enjoying life, the book additionally offers some practical advice on how to keep up the party-going, but live to an age to make those pension contributions worthwhile.
Reviews / Votes
The men who fought at Agincourt, Waterloo and Normandy have become a nation of flabby, wheezing, un-fit males. The British man needs to reclaim his health and this essential book is the first step on our way to recovery. Tony ParsonsMore details
