WebMD is not your friend
I won't go into why I went, but I always leave convinced I have cancer or something will just kill me instantly.

Re: WebMD is not your friend
My parents have this medical book that's red, has a bunch of different diseases, and a handful of flowcharts.
Whenever I'd follow the flowcharts, I'd end up with glaucoma, gonorrhea, arthritis...
How would you have gotten gonorrhea?!?
Horrible. I always think I have some rare horrible condition. Odds are, I don't!
Of course, I was vindicated once because I was diagnosed with a rare neurological condition when I was 15, so I now give credence to every symptom and crazy idea I ever get!
Hahahaha. I was 10. This is TMI, but you know, cervical mucous = white discharge. I was a bit of a hypochondriac (so much so that when I was 17 and broke my foot, my parents didn't believe me until it was still messed up a week and a half later, lol).
OMG, Marquis, I had similar concerns about cervical mucus. I actually knew that semen was viscous and kind of clear, so I became concerned (at like 11 or something) that I was like a hermaphrodite.
I also can't believe I just shared that. Kids are dumb.
That's awesome. I PPH you!
Anything you can achieve through hard work, you could also just buy.
Haha, classic! That's so true. I spent half my childhood convinced I had various ailments and issues.
This thread is hilarious.
I know what you mean about WebMD though. Once, WebMD convinced me I had appendicitis. I went to the ER and was told I had a UTI. I totally did not believe the doctors when they told me that. I kept insisting I had appendicitis. They didn't like me too much.
BTW, bunny, this never ends. If you ever have kids you will transfer your magical-medical-diagnosis-neurosis to them. I have spent hours pouring over my AAP books and websites diagnosing my kids with various ailments, and without the benefit of them telling me anything because they are too young to do so.
I guess the upside is that you will stop worrying about your own health because you are too obssessed with your kids'. It's a cruel joke, really.
