How Hard Is It To Make A Phone Call To A Doctor?
I see all these questions asked about medical situations with an infant. There are also a lot of “Why can’t I get pregnant?”. What I want to know, is it really that difficult to make a visit to a doctor? Hell a phone call is even easier. It also scares me to know that some of the mothers on here take advice about medical situations. Don’t these women realise that they may be talking to someone who has told them the WRONG dosage of medication to give a child? So, for MEDICAL questions, who’s better to ask; a doctor or a yahoo answers participant?

the same thing with pets. i tell people to consult a veterinarian about the issue, or if i know what the problem might be from my animals i will tell them my thoughts but still tell them to contact the vet. i think some people come here to get ideas on what the issue might be. but i do totally agree
Really hard apparently. Didn’t you ask a question about your IUD earlier?
Allways ask your doctor first,!!!!! when in doubt ask yahoo answers
doctor
I agree, there are also some good medical Q&A sites with real doctors. You dont usually get an instant answer though & it may be 2 in the morning where they are! I guess some are insecure about their concerns and just want a bit of feedback before they bother the doc.
A doctor is always the best route. if someone was to take medical advise from here they are either really backwards or don’t have medical insurance.
hahahahahahaha! OMG this is soooo true! I think they just do it for fun…i hope they just do it for fun…that was a good one
why do you care so much about what others are doing? Worry about yourself.
why don’t you consult a doctor about how nosey you are
i think people on here are just trying to get some advice (either they know the answer already and want to be sure or are just looking for an idea of whats wrong) but hopefully most people don’t really take everything seriously. i also think some people on here are just asking a lot of “what if” questions. because if it was a real question they probably would have called the dr. already.
For health care you need to ask a professional. Physician or Pharmacist.
doctor. i totaly agree with you that is the smartest question i have seen all day good one tiff
Well, I don’t think “joke” is the right word. Sarcasm would more aptly describe your tone.
