Maybe I’m reading you incorrectly but there is nothing wrong with showing up to your doctor’s appointment and saying “here are my symptoms, I’m concerned that I have x.” There is everything wrong with stubbornly maintaining that you have x after the doctors have explained to you that why you don’t, but the simple act of confiding what you’re afraid you have and why you think you have it would imo be beneficial for your doctor to understand your symptoms and for you to understand your diagnosis.
WebMD, as memeable as its reputation is, can be a good resource in the case of normal people who want to know what might be going on, even if the answer ends up being nothing. The arrogant people are the ones who use it and other unreliable online resources to prove they have whatever disease they want to have. Just because some people can’t take“you’re wrong”as an answer doesn’t mean that no one should voice their concerns regarding their diagnosis.
Its a god send and a curse now everyone is a doctor, and well...its the munching hand book. "Symptoms of gastroparesis" laid out like a buffet, and what might cause it, like taking too many narcotics....it really is the bullet point guide to munching
