I was reading about that AI prescription thing this morning. Don’t know what to think about that. At least it’s for meds patients have already been taking, and not for any that can be abused. I’ve gotta say, though, that ChatGPT was incredibly helpful in understanding my weird sleep study results, while my doctor absolutely was not. He basically just said “you don’t have obstructive sleep apnea, goodbye”. And while it’s true that I didn’t have any obstructive apneas, the test clearly showed that I do have sleep-disordered breathing, it’s just not typical OSA. That doesn’t mean it can’t be treated. I plugged all my results into ChatGPT and it gave me what appears to be an accurate evaluation of what really is going on, and validates the symptoms I kept telling my doctor about that he just ignored. Obviously I need a new doctor.
