Warning on information on the Internet

You will need to use your own common sense about the value of the information you find on the Internet. There is no regulation on its accuracy, it can be difficult to know what you can trust and occasionally dangerous advice may be given.

Remember that you are an individual and that all condition diagnosis is unique. Not all information that you obtain will apply to your specific situation.

Don't expect to find all the answers. Have a pen and paper ready to note any questions or concerns as you search. It may be useful to print out information you find to re-read it later. Talk to other people about Internet sites they have found useful. Discuss any medical information with your GP or specialist.
