Fellow hypochondriac here. I was at the point where doctors, hospital staff, and lab techs would immediately warn new practitioners about me so they wouldn't waste finite medical resources in a small town, and I just completely discontinued normal activities out of terror as a result.

When I finally blacked out and fractured my spine, first responders detected a lifelong cardiac arrhythmia in the back of an ambulance. Only with that knowledge have I been able to receive treatment and begin to heal emotionally from the gaslighting and medical abuse I experienced while in the care of licensed professionals.

AI-assisted medicine will prevent so many of these mistakes in the future. It can't come soon enough as far as I'm concerned.
