A Patient Whose Faith on Dr Google strengthened! | Random Chamber Talk

An above 40 Lady came to my chamber a few days ago. A few days before the visit, while walking she tripped and got an injury to her right ankle joint. She came for the X-ray. We found no fracture! It was a sprain case. I gave management accordingly.

She had another symptom. She felt some kind of dimness in her vision over the last few weeks. Like all the educated patients, at first, she asked Dr Google! Google gave her a list of causes. Of them, zinc deficiency (as a cause of the dimness of vision) appeared important to her! While I was thinking about the visual acuity problem, she intended to measure the Zinc level in her blood. I wasn't interested but she insisted. Our lab wasn't doing the test. So, we drew the blood and sent it to another lab in Muscat. The report came after 2 days! Indeed the count was less than the normal limit!

I sent her a message informing the result to her WhatsApp number. Seeing the result of her blood Zinc, her faith in Dr Goolge must have strengthened! She didn't visit my chamber physically. Hence, I prescribed a zinc tablet via the message too.

All in a day's work! Amusing story, Doc! I'm also guilty of consulting Dr. Google often. Well, it's good to get regular check ups too I suppose. It's great to learn tidbits here and there from your posts. Enjoy your weekend!

I go to Dr Google, too but sometimes he can be scary so I end up going to the clinic to calm my nerves.
When I was losing my vision, Dr Google said it could be a stroke or a list of other things. I was also scared that I was going blind, I only have one eye that works, it turned out to be cataracts they fixed my good eye and now I see fine.

Google is good to go to but you need to follow up with a real doctor.
!LOL

Google is helping us all. At the same time, putting us under unnecessary stress sometimes.

Thanks

I think doctors will be changed someday if people keep like that and after some bad cases, they will realize that diagnosis without a specialty is dangerous. Learn it the hard way !LOL

It's not unlikely! But, we are still valuable to them, at least to put them at ease!
