Here's a new survey from the Department of Obvious Things: when ladies get sick, they're much more likely to consult Dr. Google than their actual doctors. And when they do that, Dr. Google helpfully provides the wrong diagnosis. If these women going to the internet are anything like me, Dr. Google is probably telling…

In this day and age, isn't hypochondria just making good use of the information you've been supplied?

The other day my doctor, WebMD, informed me that I had uterine fibroids:

We've been expecting Jennifer Lopez to announce that she's expecting. And she says not a word! Has she been attending the Christina Aguilera School of Silence?

We know this because we went to WebMD to type in some of the newly-identified symptoms — "bloating", "fullness" "pelvic pain" and "tenderness to touch" — and instead of coming up…

This morning we arose to find we had... an achey heel. The left heel to be exact. After examining it thoroughly, we couldn't detect any problems (at least not any that were evident to the naked eye ), so we turned to the hypochondriac's favorite enabler, WebMD. Why we're frantically trying to find a neurologist even…
