Re: Looking up symptoms on the web
I do it frequently, but mainly to learn more about something. When I faced ny first cataract surgery I was terrified; had never had surgery or anaesthetic. Reading about exactly what the surgery was like, what to expect, what other patients reported, etc. calmed me very much. The same with my osteoarthritis. Have learned about different medications that have helped very much; mine is mostly in remission. Knowledge is power; you fear less when you understand. I think it's a Godsend, would not be without the ability to research things on the Web.Re: Looking up symptoms on the web
Always look symptoms up on the web. Find it very interesting. When the Hatti girl wasn't well recently, always got a print out from the Vet, then looked everything up on web. I find it easier to digest the information when I can take my time reading about it. They do say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but I'd rather have that knowledge and know all the ins and outs..........Re: Looking up symptoms on the web
I think with the doctors these days, we have little other choice but to research what 'could' be wrong with us!Thread Tools | |
