Anyone else share this? Even to the point where u know something wrong and still have to be persuaded to go? If was left to me I would be dead before I got to the hospital! Don't know where it comes from but seems that there's quite alot who share this same fear? On top of that today went to my fathers house as he in Detroit for 6wks and he been burgled ,

Not that irrational ! Where do you see a lot of sick people ? So I guess that's where there's more probability to catch something !

No, I actually like the hospital atmosphere (more so if I'm not the patient). I used to volunteer in the NICU & really enjoyed it. I do hate sitting in the ER waiting room though.

I don't have needle or blood phobias either.

This reminds me of a turf I saw this morning. Primo Loco's brother made it, it's on top of a hospital in San Diego and it called "you die here" or "you go here to die". Something like that. 😒

Irrational fear of the dentist is what I have. Doesn't help when 2 of my visits I've ended up with a dislocated jaw, leading to long A&E visits. Not their fault though, I have a defect on my jaw, can dislocate from yawning lol

Well, with more visits you will get used to it. Practice makes perfect. 🏩🚑💨😜

On the real though, with insurance bs, mrsa, hospitals diagnosing patients in order for the company to make more money with excessive treatment, and malpractice there is plenty to worry about. Plus, if you ever read the contract they have you sign they bent you over the table when you walked in the door.

I have a rational fear of hospital bills. Close enough?

Not irrational. They will kill you with insulin every time.

Seriously, just go if you need to. Don't be such a wuss. You gots kids.

Boy does that one ever work for me!! Still waiting to see my 50% on the oldest's latest broken limb reduction. Youngest is in the queue for an MRI. The bill should be delivered with anesthesia. Fear the billing office!
