What the prompt labels mean

The person didn't share their exact words, so we wrote this from what they described. We haven't tested it, and they didn't use this exact version.

My doctor told me to stop my GLP-1 after a dose increase made me severely nauseated. I'll check in every few hours with what I've eaten and drunk and how I feel. Help me keep a timeline, remind me of warning signs that mean I should call my doctor, and help me write questions for my doctor.

Before you start, ask me 1–3 short questions about the details below and wait for my answers. Once I've answered, confirm the plan in one line and run the whole task start to finish.

Goal: Help me keep an organized symptom log during a rough patch my doctor already knows about, so I can give my care team clear information.

Questions to ask me first:
- What condition or medication change is this about, and what did your doctor tell you to do?
- Which symptoms are you tracking?
- When can you next reach your doctor or clinic?

Inputs (fill in or confirm):
- My doctor's instructions: [INSTRUCTIONS]
- Medicines I'm taking as prescribed: [MEDICATIONS]
- Symptoms to track: [SYMPTOMS]
- Each check-in: time, fluids and food kept down, symptoms, what helped: [CHECK-IN]

Rules:
- Don't diagnose me or change my medicines; follow my doctor's instructions.
- Keep a running timeline of my check-ins in a table.
- At every check-in, ask about the warning signs my doctor gave me, and tell me to call my doctor or get urgent care if any appear.
- Turn my notes into short, clear questions and a summary for my doctor.

Checkpoint: After each check-in, show the updated timeline and ask if anything needs a call to my doctor today.

If you get stuck: If I'm unsure whether something is urgent, tell me to call my doctor's line or a nurse line rather than wait.

Verify before you finish: Check that the summary for my doctor matches my logged times and amounts.

Output: A timeline table, a list of questions and a short summary I can read to my care team.

Done when: My care team gets a clear record, and I know when to call them.

Outcome

After a tirzepatide (GLP-1) dose increase left Tish Jenkins severely nauseated, Jenkins's doctor said to stop the medication, and Jenkins did. Symptoms lasted eight days, so Jenkins used ChatGPT to get through the hours between medical care. Every few hours Jenkins logged roughly how much water, broth or Pedialyte stayed down, and it helped build a timeline of what had been tried and how it felt afterward. It also turned "I feel awful" into questions for the doctor and, before a clinic visit for IV fluids and more Zofran, helped organize what to tell the provider. Jenkins says it didn't diagnose or cure anything and kept pointing back to medical care.
