We live in an era in which the public interest in medical mattersis high. When so much information and misinformation are availableon the Internet, many patients devote a fair share of time tomatching their most recent laboratory results with the "normal"values cited in health-related Web sites or even in the advertisementsfor their medication. It seems reasonable for patients to striveto achieve the best possible results from medication or othertreatments, and patients' requests for information about thedesired goals of treatment are to be commended.
