Are you a "let's give it a day" kind of person? (Details inside)

I have recently come to realize that when there is something physically wrong with me I tend to “give it a day (or so)” before heading to see the doctor. Even if the symptoms are somewhat alarming (I’m not talking severe chest pain or trouble breathing type stuff here) I seem to take a “let’s give it a day” kind of attitude to give it a chance to improve on its own. In my case it has proven to be a decent strategy and of course if the symptoms haven’t improved over a matter of time I visit a doctor. I seem to take this approach with my kids as well unless it is an emergency.

So what kind of person are you? Do you “give it a day” or would you rather be safe then sorry and get to the doctor ASAP?
