Are you Guilty of “Fear Googling”? Don’t End up with a Lupus Self Diagnosis!
We’ve all done it at one time or another. A mysterious tickle in our throat, an unexplained pain in our arm, a twinge when we turn our head, or a stomach pain that comes and goes and suddenly we’re Dr. House on a mission.
A few dozen clicks and web pages later, and we’ve convinced ourselves that we are, if not literally dying, well on our way to an early grave – this is known as “Fear Googling”, and it only gets worse the more “information” we find online.
Newsflash:
You (probably) aren’t dying. Also, you’re not alone! Thousands of people turn to Google for answers on a daily basis, forgetting that a “check your symptoms” row of boxes is no substitute for years of medical training and hands-on patient care.
Of course, it can be frustrating to run to the doctor’s office, urgent care, or ER every time you feel a little under the weather. Trying to call the doctor’s office for answers can lead to a day’s wait or more, while you bite your nails down to the quick and Google some more things to worry about.
Wouldn’t it be better if you had access to a qualified medical professional who can answer your questions during a quick phone call, without having to resort to search engines? Fortunately, such a solution does exist, and you can use it as often as needed if you or anyone else in your household has a non-emergent health concern or question.
