The UK's most Googled conditions have been revealed in a new study carried out by an online medical service.
Dr Morton's – 'The Medical Helpline' – says fibromyalgia was 2015's top condition searched for by people before calling a GP. Symptoms include all-over body pain, severe tiredness and problems with sleep, with the long-term condition particularly common in women.
The NHS estimates that up to one in 20 UK residents have the condition, but it is difficult to diagnose which may explain why it tops the list with more than one million searches this year alone.
