When does it pay you to pay someone else?

Have you ever tried to self-diagnose a medical ailment using Google? Well I am sad to say that I have made this very unfortunate mistake. I thought that I would save myself the inconvenience and cost of visiting the doctor by taking matters into my own hands. At the very least I would know as much as he would about the possible causes of my symptoms and I may even be able to offer some valuable insight as to what my diagnosis should be.

Before I began my research I generally felt ok (apart from my symptoms) but the more I researched the more concerned I became. Eventually I found myself in a state of panic as I learned I had only short time to live and I should go to the emergency room immediately as most of my symptoms lead to heart attacks, strokes and many other ailments that would require chronic medication for the rest of my life! I even began to experience new symptoms as a result of the panic that had now set in. I even found myself investigating new web sites about panic attacks!
