Feeling Sick?

I personally don't dare to give advise threw this media, due to unresolved legal issues. But the following places are being designed by various companies to test programs that diagnose diseases based on symptoms, this programs will ask for symptoms and will give you a diagnosis. Remember these are computer programs , use with discretion, this is information not an endorsement of any of these products, the intelligent choice is to consult your doctor.....

None available at present, all prior were close by legal reasons...
