    You’re right but it’s also dependent on your doctor, your symptoms, and where you live. Please don’t discourage others from seeking out treatment for this because it might be difficult to get insurance to cover it.

      They are explaining why people in the US have barriers to doing the things that you are correct to recommend, not discouraging anyone from doing those things.

        I understand, but being overly negative about it will also discourage people.

        My friend ignored her symptoms too long and died. I’d rather people try to get screenings done if they think there’s a problem rather than sucking it up and pushing through.
