i wouldn't worry too much..i think having the internet & all the medical info right at your fingertips makes it easy to run & research stuff. it's easy to quick look up every symptom to see what it could possibly be...that plus the fact there are so many medicine ads on tv too.

i would guess if you find it consumes you life than maybe you might need to worry about it & discuss it but i find that if i have a concern i look it up & do my research before i address it with my dr...then after i speak with her i take what she says & if need be no some additional reading. "an educated consumer is the best one"

i don't worry about diseases...because well i just don't...everyone is going to drop dead someday of some thing...be it cardiac, cancer, o bus running them over, space junk landing on them...what ever. i have too much to do to spend all day worrying about if my cold will turn into lung congestion that will destroy me...so i get out & enjoy myself. not to say i am stupid...i am careful..but i do plan on enjoying myselft before space junk squashes me into a pancake.
