WebMD

Posted by Virgil Burks

I think that I have become a hypochondriac. I’m really glad we have satellite internet from http://www.satellitestarinternet.com/, because every time I have any kind of sickness or strange symptom, I look it up on WebMD. I remember one time when I was in college, I got out of the shower and looked in the mirror, and I thought my eyes were popping out of my head. I immediately looked this up on WebMD and found out that I could possibly have Lymphoma. I know that it was probably overreacting, but I had my roommate take me to the emergency room to get it checked out. Thankfully it was nothing, but since then I have always looked up my crazy symptoms on WebMD. I know that my doctor probably thinks I’m crazy because every time I have a physical or appointment, I ask her a million questions about the stuff that I read online and always ask her if she thinks I have any diseases. There has only been one time that I benefited from looking at WebMD and it was when I found a spot on my arm that I looked up and found out that it was skin cancer. If it hadn’t been for that one incident, I would probably stop looking up my symptoms.
