Of course it is. Medical resources are minimal for those outside the health system. All roads lead to "ask your doctor."

I once looked up "why is my arm twitching" That sent me down a terrible rabbit hole for months on end.

And the funny thing is when you go see a doctor their thing is the opposite. my primary told me "I don't like it when my patients have cancer and most don't, we always check for the scary but we start with looking for the most common explanation and work our way out."

I'm currently sitting in a hospital waiting room after three ER visits for my husband. He's confident something horrible is wrong and each visit is a big zero. Google sucks when you're dealing with a hypochondriac. I will never financially recover from this.

Yeah, and it makes sense coming from a liability position. Direct folks to a professional assessment and you're search engine has receipts of that. If you decide to ignore it, that's your dumb ass. This is a pretty normal conversation at tables when software/services like this are coming of age. "How liable can we be held for our services?"

That is where I am now. I have enough issues. I don't need to know about anymore.

Nah, if you ignore problems there is a chance they will go away. I don't want to miss out on accomplishing something by neglect.
