Self diagnosis

Does anyone know the website for the online slef diagnosis? i think the NHS did one where you answered a few simple questions and there were able to give you a diagnosis. ive tried looking on the internet but cant seem to find any.

Think it's more suited to the H&R board than this one.

Best bet is to try googling "symptoms" followed by the symptoms you have - you'll be surprised at the results.

It shouldn't be regarded as self diagnosis though, really. If you're genuinely worried about something, get the professionals to do it for you :smile:

I wouldn't really bother with these self diagnosis sites.
Surely its better to go to the doctors??? because a self diagnosis site is more likely to diagnos you with the wrong illness

Deffo go to the Doctors. That site is only a rough guide. You need to talk to a professional. :smile:

Don't do it! I had cystisis once, typed blood in urine into a search engine and thought i was going to die. Seriously don't do it people. I went upstairs to tell my mum to take me to hospital and when i told her what was wrong with me she laughed her head off. Supportive ay? xx

The internet is useless for info on health, doctors sometimes work.

These sites don't work! They're completely rubbish, they have so little data that if you say you have a headache it'll tell you that you have a brain tumour! Seriously stay away!

If you're not well, its best to go to a doctor, like people have suggested. Hope you're feeling better soon :smile:

It's not that they have a small database, it's that, legally, they have to err on the side of caution, lest they miss a diagnosis of a brain tumour
