What you always have to remember about preventative health checks is that they’re
intended to pick up signs that you have a chance of developing a disease in the 
future. This means that serious illnesses and diseases can be identified quickly,
which makes it more likely that they can be cured or managed with ease. It also 
means that you might be able to take steps to halt an illness, if caught early enough,
and save yourself a lot of health problems in the future.
