Classic syndrome: Most medical students scrutinize their bodies as they learn about new conditions. You, like many others, start taking Internet renditions personally, when most of the material is so off base, that science is mere semblance. It is contagious. Suggest you stop reading this tripe, and address your health concerns traditionally with your doctor or our superlative group here on HealthTap.
