Lisa Gualtieri, Adjunct Professor at Tufts University School of Medicine, says you can get yourself all worked up over nothing by doing that.
My advice for patients is that it's fine to go online but make sure that you're using credible, reliable information. And talk to your doctor about what you find online and especially about any concerns you have about what you've read.
So why aren't people talking with their doctor about the information they find on the Internet?
I think people feel very concerned about, " I don't have very much time, I shouldn't be talking about this." And also many people are not comfortable talking about it or they don't know how to bring it up - but some of the responsibility lies with the doctors to ask.
And what are the best websites for credible health information?
The best sites that I know of are the ones that come from the government - the CDC, the NIH or the ones that come from specific organizations like the American Cancer Society, or the American Heart Association.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Cymbalta® (duloxetine HCl) for the maintenance treatment of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) in adults, Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) announced.
The efficacy and safety of Drug for the maintenance treatment of GAD were established in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Patients with GAD who initially had responded to treatment with Cymbalta 60-120 mg/day during a 26-week open-label phase were randomly assigned to receive Cymbalta 60-120mg/day (216 patients) or placebo (213 patients).
Diflucan is an antibiotic that has anti-fungal properties and which is why there are a whole lot of women that consider it useful for treating their vaginal yeast infection problems. Diflucan can also result in allergic reactions, though such instances are pretty rare. When a reaction does occur, it can cause symptoms like hives, difficulty in breathing or even swallowing, blood pressure may also drop suddenly, it has also been noticed that there can be swelling in the lips, face, throat as well as the tongue. With the proper Diflucan dosage, it is possible to see off the symptoms and be free of yeast infection in as few as two weeks or, with the right treatment, this may even be possible in as short a time period as just a couple of days or so.

Medecine is a prescription drug used for treating various types of bacterial infections. It is an antibiotic that works by stopping bacteria from making cell walls, causing them to die eventually. You should talk to your healthcare provider before using amoxicillin if you have kidney disease or phenylketonuria. The medication comes in the form of capsules, tablets, chewable tablets, pediatric drops, and oral suspension. There is no "standard" amoxicillin dose that is recommended for all situations. Your healthcare provider will calculate the appropriate dose taking into account several factors, including your weight, the severity of the infection, the type of the infection, and the type of bacteria causing the infection.
