A 40 -year -old woman divides her time between Northern Carolina and US Virgin Islands Puffy Doctors initially helped its symptoms detect her hidden cancer after rheumatoid arthritis and acid reflux. Lauren Bannon turned to AI Chatbot when doctors rejected her rapid weight loss and severe abdominal pain, causing the discovery to search thyroid cancer,
Banon, who owns a marketing company, decided to consult Chatgpt after being disappointed with his medical care. AI platform suggested that it may have Hashimoto’s disease And recommended specific thyroid tests.
Despite his doctor suspicion about the possibility of Hashimoto’s disease due to a family history, Banon insisted on testing. The subsequent thyroid scan revealed two small cancer lumps in her neck.
“I was allowed down by doctors. It was almost as if they were trying to give you medicine for anything to get you out of the door … I needed to find out what was happening to me, I just felt so frustrated. I just didn’t need the answers that I needed,” Bannon told the mirror.
“So it is that when I pulled the chat. I had already used it for work. I started typing what is a copy of rheumatoid arthritis and saying that ‘you can have Hashimoto’s disease, ask your doctor to check my thyroid peroxide antibody (TPO). So I went to my doctors.
“I did not have specific symptoms of Hashimoto’s disease, I was not tired or feeling tired. If I had not seen on chat, I would have just taken rheumatic medicine and cancer would have spread everywhere from my neck.”
“The doctor said that I was very lucky that I caught it so soon.
Banon now advocates using AI platforms for health concerns, taking precautions for others. “I will encourage others to use chat GPT with my health concerns, work with caution, but if it gives you something to see, ask your doctors to test you. It can’t do any harm. I feel lucky to survive.”
Through the suggestion of Chatgpt, his cancer was allowed for timely medical intervention to detect initial detection, possibly preventing the spread of the disease in other parts of his body.
