I know several people like this Anne, have always got a health issue,and like to share with me.
I am 2weeks post hip surgery,and even then not excused from hearing other peoples issues.
They really have no self awareness.
Like you I give doctors a wide berth if I can

I have a dear friend of very long standing who does so.
She rang me yesterday morning while waiting for yet another GP appointment.
This happens at least twice a month.She visits for, what to me , are very trivial things.
Yesterday it was a sore ear, the outer part, not the inner.
She and her H have insurance so it is constant visits to consultants and private hospitals.
Very little ever comes of it, it is usually “ wait and see” or get back in touch if it doesn’t improve.
It is the main topic of conversation with her.
I do know others like this , never happier than when they are
“under the doctor”.
For myself I keep as far away from my surgery as I am able.
