Insurance would NOT cover this and they could be brought up on complaints with their medical board. One has to have developed a patient-physician relationship to give medical advice or diagnoses unless they are acting as part of a consulting team with the primary care or other provider. Now of course, random suggestions of the typical things it COULD be along with direction to seek their own medical provider's guidance is okay, but beyond that, no way.

So, they are left hearing from armchair diagnosticians with no qualifications, or worse, those who get their kicks off of some pretty horrendous and deleterious pranking.
