Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Panel 1: "Your heart is kinda gross looking"

Panel 3: "Please tell your doctor your self-diagnosis you found online. Doctors LOVE that."

Panel 4: ???

Lmao. It says; "I can't believe you're reading this tiny print. It's not at all interesting. Watch TV instead. I honestly feel a bit guilty putting this here because i'm totally wasting your time. It's just meaningess background text. On the other hand it's not like you'd be curing cancer if you weren't reading this. But that's okay. You're good as you are. Read tiny print if you want to."

I clicked into the comments to find this transcription. Thanks you for wasting your time so I could waste slightly less time.

My one regret is that i only have one upvote to give. But to make sure I clicked it twice.

Do you have a patron or something? Can i buy you a coffee? Or an egg?

Unironically doctors quite like self diagnoses from my experience (provides you use reputable sources such as the NHS website and you aren't trying to treat it yourself and asking a doctor for a professional opinion)

It gives them something to go off of/test for.

Oh that's neat. Maybe I'll bring mine up next time I have an appointment.

Plus they can blame the patient for a false diagnosis.

sometimes doctors have scolded me for not looking it up online

It's kind of an easy choice, whatever the patient did blame em for not doing otherwise

The poster text in panel 4 is very much worth reading. I was going to type it out, but then I realised I shouldn't deprived people of the joy of reading it themselves.

It is much easier to read on the source website, though.
