Question: About 3 years ago I used to go to a website where I would medical articles and also get a a consultation. The process was very easy I would put the symptoms and I would get a list of possible diseases. It was very informative but now I was looking for the website and I couldn't find. Does anyone knows anything that sounds like what I have just described?

Answers: A consultation? Never heard of such a thing. Some insurance companies have nurses on call that you can talk to---but you have to be one of their patients and they have access to your medical records. They even have a doctor there in case it's more serious. There are plenty of websites you can look up symptoms, but no where are you going to get a REAL medical professional giving you a medical consultation and diagnosis online. No way.
And, how would you know you weren't talking to some person, sitting in their underwear, who has lost their job at the convenience store and does this all day long because they have nothing else to do? You don't. And as long as the chips hold out, they be sitting their handing out bogus medical advise. Any place that tells you it will diagnose you, is a SCAM.
