Guest guest Posted June 3, 2000 Report Share Posted June 3, 2000 Here's a website that offers online diagnosis. I have no idea how good it is as I haven't checked it out. If you do check it out please be aware of the problems with online diagnosis. It's not the same as being seen by a trained observor in person. There's no way to get a pulse diagnosis for one thing. The person responding could very easily miss something that a trained observor would spot. You definitely don't want to follow any diagnosis slavishly. But, if you observe caution, this could be a great way to learn. The site could point you toward an area of more study. For example, if you fill out the form and are told you *may* suffer from say Yin Deficiency, you may want to read all you can on Yin Deficiency. Then again, this may just be a come-on for selling herbs and patent medicine. If you fill out the form, and you get an answer back along the lines of, " You are Yin Deficient, this is what you take, and we can sell it to you, " avoid this site with a 10 foot pole! It's irresponsible to pretend to diagnose with certainty online without examining someone in person. All you can do online is to give a person ideas for areas to look at more closely and read up on. At some point the site should state this in so many words. http://www.windsandwaters.com Victoria ______________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
