Are you a cyberchondriac?

Worried about that niggling pain in your arm? Concerned about those persistent headaches? If you’ve searched online for information about medical woes you’re not alone. The number of so-called cyberchondriacs seeking health information on the Web has soared to about 160 million in 2006 — a 37% rise over two years, according a new poll. “Cyberchondriacs now represent 84% of all online adults, up from last year’s 80%, and 72% in 2005,” Harris Interactive, the market research firm that conducted the poll, said.
