Don’t let Obama hear this....Diagnose your own disease sounds like something he would like in his socialized health plans...LOL
Yes. Under Obama’s plan she would be fined big time!! Possibly imprisoned?
I’m surprised she is not jailed for practicing medicine without a government license.
In all seriousness, it would be a good idea for the private sector to sell more at-home kits for people to diagnose themselves. There are pregnancy test kits, why not other kits?
I’ve diagnosed my children a few times with things the doctors missed. Not using science - only using the internet. So many people are empowered now by the internet. Of course, on the flip side, a hypochondriac might take things too far.
I basically diagnosed my own lupus. Doctors had just been treating the symptoms for years, but never connecting the dots.
We received a solicitation letter from the Lupus Foundation which had a list of 10 symptoms which might indicate one had Lupus, I had 8 of the 10. I took the list to my internist and she sent me to a rheumatologist. BINGO. After 12 years of suffering I finally had some answers!
