TWO MEDICAL SITES--ONE GOOD, ONE "NO-NO"

Medical Mnemonics.com, the “world’s database of medical mnemonics,” is a neat site where you can search by filters or keywords, browse by category and with charts, add your favorite mnemonics. And you can put it on a PDA. I’m not a medical guru, so I can’t judge it, but it looks neat and useful. (Couldn’t find who set this up.)

Do NOT use this site
MEDgle “is an online information and educational service.” One puts in symptoms and received a ranked list of possible diagnoses. I and several others have tried it and have had bad results. Our conditions were not listed and some of the ones the site returned were strange and even frightening. We should caution our users NOT to use this site.
