as long as it wasn't WebMD, right?
now, I'll be honest - I can actually see that, looking up "differential diagnosis" but that's not the same as looking up symptoms. that starts with "looking up what you think it is, and then going from there, based on slight deltas in the symptoms"

@fbarton Exactly. It was too strange. I have a different GP now. Speaking of GP's: dear GP's, please talk about what you see, don't observe in silence and draw conclusions; they may not be correct. What you see may very well not be what the patient always experiences. Example: much later, I found out I was misdiagnosed because I 'didn't have something'. But hey; I kept getting rid of that 'something' because I didn't like it, and had no idea it was a symptom. @NineStonesClose @scalzi
