              If you need medical care, get fucking medical care.  Seriously.  It will get worse if you ignore it, whatever "it" happens to be.
Following the above, have at least one trusted advocate (partner, family member, friend, doesn't matter) who can explain any chronic issues, typical medications, etc., and who can and will advocate on your behalf with medical professionals in e.g., a hospital setting as and when necessary.
