How ChatGPT helped diagnose mom's chronic cough after a year
After a year of doctor visits and no answers for her mom's chronic cough, Shreya turned to ChatGPT—and finally got some clarity.
She described her mom's symptoms to the AI, which listed possible causes. One suggestion? A side effect from blood pressure meds.
Shreya checked with a doctor, her mom's medication was switched, and things started to improve.
