@ahimsa, AI assistants, like ChatGPT can be helpful when searching for information about your health. When you ask an AI assistant a question or give it a prompt, it looks at the data and then gives back answers or suggestions in plain language. But the information AI assistants give you isn’t always 100% accurate—it depends on the data it was trained on and how your question or prompt was worded. It's important to fact check.

You may appreciate the guidance and information posted in this blog:

Did the answer you got from ChatGPT agree with the guidance you and your spouse got from the oncologist? When does she go for her next appointment?

Yes, exactly, the chatGPT keeps reminding you that it can make mistakes so I am very cognizant of that. However I am getting more and better info from chatGPT than I am from my neurologist at the moment. I may be looking for a new neurologist. He runs a lot of tests but doesn't give me the results let alone interpret them. VERY frustrating. Chat GPT can tell me what the numbers mean on my labs; for example a number between 4.5 and 5.1 suggests such and such. The doc doesn't bother to do that.
