The prompt

Act as a patient educator. I've got a medical document and want to understand it before I see my doctor. This is not a diagnosis; I'll discuss everything with my doctor. Document type: [X-ray, ultrasound, MRI or CT report / hospital discharge summary]. Text: [paste it, with name, ID numbers and address removed]. What I already know: [why the test was done]. Please: 1. Explain each finding in plain words, in the order it appears, and what each medical term means. 2. Separate what the report says from anything you're inferring; label inferences clearly. 3. List any medicines, doses or follow-up instructions in a simple table (for discharge summaries), exactly as written. 4. Give me 6-8 questions to ask my doctor. 5. Tell me which signs would mean I should seek care urgently before the appointment, based on general guidance. Don't tell me the outcome is good or bad, and don't suggest changing any treatment.
