I too love Google but be V_E_R_Y careful w/google
Subject: I too love Google but be V_E_R_Y careful w/google

Google is great for retrieving anything faster than the speed of light *lol* - but if the info comes from a nonverifiable medical website, be very wary.  There are a few I trust only...the NIH for one (Nat'l Institute of Health) and the CDC (Center for Disease Control) and a few others out of the government actually.


As for prescription places, I trusted rx.com for far too long, there are many more reliable drug websites out there... medilexicon.com is a great site and to confirm a proper name of a disease or things like that, there is whonamedit.com which, if you write to the site owner, can be added to (I have done some communication with the site owner so this is 100% true). 


When I first started using google in MT work about 8 years ago as google is not that old, (got online 12 years ago, been an MT since 1980), I had looked up Spironolactone, and Google gave the spelling to me incorrectly and (who knew it was wrong?!?!??) I used their spelling and I was wrong. 


So, only advice is be VERY CAREFUL what YOU CHOOSE to use as far as websites go regarding MT/ME work because in the end you're the one responsible....not google.

Not always is google correct!!


Many times google will bring up words that are spelled incorrectly b/c there are so many websites out there, that there can be a mistake in the website, and google does not diffrentiate that. The way to know if google is 100% correct is:


1. See according to the amount of sites it found. If it is less than a few hundred, it is most probably spelled differently (and many times it will ask you "did you mean ...")


2. See if the top has a heading of what you typed with subheadings such as TREATMENT, PROCEDURES, etc. That is usually brought up for medications and medical terminology.
