Only if I was then able to make lifestyle changes to either delay or change the predicted outcome. (Obviously, I'm going to die eventually...) |
| Jody | | posted 27-Mar-2007 10:08am |
Probably not. It would stress me out too much to know how, but not know when. |
| JessicaWoman99 | | posted 27-Mar-2007 10:24am |
What am I going to die from?? |
bill   | | posted 27-Mar-2007 10:57am |
no |
Enheduanna  | | posted 27-Mar-2007 11:24am |
Not really. |

Why depress myself?? |

No thanks |

No. |

Seems like a yes or no question. If only there was a way that I could select yes or no and the survey website would total up those answers. |
| mandy | | posted 27-Mar-2007 2:51pm |
Yes |

That's crazy talk.......... |
jettles   | | posted 27-Mar-2007 3:13pm |
hhhmmm, i would have to think about this a little longer maybe, my first reaction was no, i wouldn't want to know but i'm not sure. of course, i would want to know if i was going to die from something that i could change or cure............ but if it was just going to tell me what it would be but nothing would change that i was going to die then i think not! |
| Amanda | | posted 27-Mar-2007 3:30pm |
No. While it's tempting, I think I'd end up worrying over it. I want what time I have to be happy. |
| victoria | | posted 27-Mar-2007 3:59pm |
Oh yes... I would want to know what is waiting for me. I actually wish that I could do something like that. |
| filiasan | | posted 27-Mar-2007 4:15pm |
I'd rather die than live a longer life attached to a machine. |

I'm a wild and crazy guy. |
LindaH    | | posted 27-Mar-2007 4:43pm |
I wouldn't be opposed to it. |
romkey  | | posted 27-Mar-2007 5:11pm |
Why no options?
Yes, of course I'd want to find out. |
| mandy | | (reply to dab) posted 27-Mar-2007 6:13pm |
Wait ...the crazy bucket is for Dib....not dab |
cerealkiller   | | posted 27-Mar-2007 6:50pm |
Yeah, but could the diagnostic machine also tell you if you'd be run over by a car, murdered, hit by lightning, etc.................? |
Zang  | | posted 27-Mar-2007 8:50pm |
 Yes
 No |
| JessicaWoman99 | | posted 27-Mar-2007 9:38pm |
Am I dead already must be |
CarolL  | | posted 28-Mar-2007 12:40am |
Is this a no-reversal diagnosis? If I didn't know, and I suddenly did something that would eliminate that as the looming cause of death, would the machine read something different in a year or two? |
| kitti723 | | posted 28-Mar-2007 9:55am |
Oh, yes. Then I could avoid all caution of other things. If I am to die by car accident then I could eat drink & be merry all the time. I could just never get in a car or cross the street, but inevitably I assume, the car would find me. |
| Wackadoo | | posted 28-Mar-2007 11:05am |
I've thought about this on several occasions and I don't think I would want to know my ultimate demise. I would do a full body scan every two years for preventative reasons, though. Just wouldn't want to know how I was going to die or when. |
gambler   | | posted 28-Mar-2007 6:33pm |
No |
| RGirl | | posted 28-Mar-2007 7:20pm |
I'm too stupid to know how to answer without options. |
| southernyankee | | posted 28-Mar-2007 7:24pm |
You mean like if I was able to prevent it? Hell yeah. |
| JessicaWoman99 | | posted 28-Mar-2007 10:57pm |
There goes my heart and there goes my liver |
| Enigma | | posted 29-Mar-2007 12:50am |
Told what I was going to die from? SURE. I don't think I'd want to know when, but what - heck maybe I could do something to prevent it then! |
cloudhugger   | | posted 29-Mar-2007 1:04pm |
jAbsolutely. The machine is not god or a fortune teller. It's merely a tool that can be used to determine what your next step can be. |

I'd love to hook up with a diagnostic machine. My hottest date for years. |

i think sometimes worrying about getting something can only make it worse. I have faced a sit where it was thought I had breast cancer. At that point for two month I thought I have two choices. Yes this is scary, so I can either focus on the disease and let it scare me. Or I can focus on getting better and doing whatever it takers to do that. Luckily after two months the lump doctors were sure was cancer disappeared, but I think being positive helped in that. So no I wouldn't want to know because I would think about it and wonder when...yeah I might try to do what it would take to prevent it, but we should be taking care of ourselves anyways. Whatever comes I will handle it then. Right now I just want to be all around the best I can be for now...and later |

Sure, why not? Could it 'predict' that I would die in a car accident? Or a house fire? Basically, with this knowledge, you could predict when you would die, too. |
| autumnlight | | posted 21-Apr-2007 4:38pm |
Could it predict accident or murder? If so, no. |
| falkensmaze | | posted 25-Apr-2007 3:23am |
It would only be able to predict cause of death due to a medical condition since there isn't a way it could tell me that I'm going to be murdered, die accidentally or of natural causes not related to any medical condition. Due to that, it wouldn't be 100% accurate. |
