"Our Rules"
1. All members are important and deserve respect. Please don’t disparage anyone’s ideas or opinions. Negativity is not welcome. 2. Please introduce yourself to the group. We want to get to know each other; the more we know, the more we care, and the more we care, the more we can help. 3. Many of us have physical and/or mental issues that are sensitive. Asking probing questions about other members’ conditions is not a welcome practice. 4. Please don’t use the information you gain from the MedeXplainr apps to give advice to others. The apps only define and explain, and their detail makes them sound authoritative. They are not a medical authority and their factual information comes from an AI. Although it is reliable, it is not from a licensed medical authority and shouldn’t be construed as medical advice. 5. This is a place for support and kindness. Please keep that uppermost in your mind when you post. Many thanks to all who have joined us, and those to come!

Supporting each other in communities is so important!
Welcome New Members!
This group is not concerned with making a ton of money or getting a thousand members. So, why do I say that? Because the only applicants for membership, with a four exceptions, have ben people whose goal was not to help anyone else with their health, or even to investigate the outstanding apps we offer. It was to get a client for their "community building" skills, etc. There are many of those here in Skool with proven records. I can go to them if I have need of making this group bigger. If you are a person who is interested in your health or that of others, and you would like to find out what it's like to have the entire world of AI resources answer your health questions and explain your medical tests, this is the place for you to do those. If you want to get me as a client to pay you, please go somewhere else. Thanks.

There are a lot of those people floating around @Bill Cory

A few yes. I simply do not accept them if Skool has flagged them. If not, then I ask directly if they intend on engaging in my community, give them the chance to and then boot them out.
The Doctor Visit … How Was it?
So, you went to the doctor and had your physical or wellness check. Wellness Check: That's what they call it when you're old. It seems they are expecting to find multiple problems, just from your age. So what they're doing in the "wellness check" is finding out if that collection of problems adds up to anything they can pill you for or treat you for or even — !! — cure? The doctor finishes, talks a little bit, says you're okay but watch how much of this or that you eat, and says he'll see you next time. Do you get any real, actionable information? That depends on the doctor, unfortunately, and doctors are people. Some are competent and interested, some uninterested but competent, and some both uninterested and incompetent. …so usually, no real info is gotten. But then, he orders a Blood Test and Lipid Panel, and that's where you can find the TRUTH. Why does he order those? Two reasons: They are high profit, and they take almost none of his time. (Yes, I know I'm waxing cynical.) But the real story is in the test results, which the doc can read, no problem. But what about the rest of us? We can't read them and understand their meaning. Not without help. Help is here. The MedeXplainr app takes your uploaded test document and returns a plain English explanation and amplification of every medical term, what it means, why it's important, why you need to know about it, what it signifies if it's high or low, and if it's serious enough to ask the doctor about. That's a lot of good information, and it's all yours for the asking in MedeXplainr. In about sixty seconds. Look in the Classrooms.

In Ontario Canada, our labs are all uploaded to a secure site where we can view them usually within 24 hours or a bit longer depending on the specific test. Once visible, we are shown whether or not our specific result fits into the normal range. ALL of this is great, but now we know if we are in the normal range or not, but do we know what creatinine is and what its level represents? Most do not!
I Don't Speak Doctors' Technical Language ... Do You?
Every occupation has its own jargon, right? in Skool, we have it: Members, lurkers, posts, boost, cover image, discovery, etc. When we read them in context, they're pretty clear. Some, even for newcomers! But, reading medical information? Many words used in medicine are impossible! We never study or learn them as regular people. But we're expected to read a test result and react to it. How do we do that if we don't understand the medical jargon? That's the first problem. Sure, it's not hard to figure out if you're a user of AI, like ChatGPT or Grok. But if you aren't an AI user? And you don't want to take the time to learn it? That's the second problem. I've worked a way around both problems. It's a simple app named MedeXplainr, as in, "medical explainer." When you use it, you get a report, a plain English translation from jargon to regular everyday language. You can read it, understand it, and react appropriately to it. Let me urge you to try it out with your own medical test report(s). If you're a medical professional, you probably don't need it ... but your patients do!

@Bill Cory I will have a look this week for sure. Trying to catch up here and head for my daughters today. I would like to have a conversation some time as well.

@Bill Cory Took a very quick look at your website. I think video of your apps in use would be helpful there. Looks great!
Communication With Your Doctor?
Do you have an illness, injury, misunderstanding or difference of opinion with a doctor? We've all been in that situation at some point. Frequently, it's a lack of good communication between us and our doctor. Our doctor speaks the language of med-tech. His written reports are full of it. We, on the other hand, speak the language of everyday life. Our questions are based on our lack of medical knowledge. But, alas, few doctors have the time to give us adequate explanations. Recently, I ran my own blood tests through our MedeXplainr Pro app, and found things I had not understood before. It took all of two minutes, and I had a new document in my hand, in plain language. I got on the phone right away and made a new appointment. With what I understand now, I am frankly a bit peeved that the doc did not reach out with a note of urgency. In my layman's opinion, it was warranted, and I intend to ask him about it. Do you have a great communication link with your doctor? If you do, please tell us about it! It just could be that I'm the culprit here, not the Doc!

I do find my new doctor making an effort to clarify more. Often times you need to be prepared with the right questions to ask to get detail from them. @Bill Cory you have not been around. Are you okay?
