I would just like to briefly say that the internet is the WORST thing in the world for hypochondriacs and I am one. Also, I think I have gallstones. Ack.

I'm not a hypochondriac, but when I'm sick, but before I go to the doctor to get diagnosed, I always worry that what I have is maybe worse than what it probably is. Does that make sense? In any case, Web MD is awesome for making me nervous that maybe what I have is something more serious than what it really is.

Do you really think you have gallstones? You'd probably definitely notice it if you really did.

Well I've been having this kind of non stop dull ache in my upper right abdomen that kind of radiates around to my back and I've kind of been ignoring. Also in the past like 3 months every time I go out to eat I get intense pains in my upper right abdomen. So yea, I've just been ignoring it. Which is what I do until I have no choice except to go to the doctor. So I Web MDed it, and I'm thinking gallstones. But I'm also thinking it's time to go to the doctor.

Definitely time to go to the non-web MD. Feel better Melissa!

ahh shutup! i just looked up gallstones cause of this post, and i've had weird "pain in the back between the shoulder blades" occasionally but routinely for several months now! and i attribute all abdomen pain to the tummy problems i already know i have! ahh though!

i've self-diagnosed via internet CORRECTLY in the past though. that.. can be good..?
