How AI Transformed My Cancer Treatment Journey

When I turned 60, I faced mysterious health problems that doctors initially missed. After multiple tests with no clear diagnosis, it was only after a severe episode and a new medical team that aggressive blood cancer was found. Frustrated by the limits of traditional care, I decided to take matters into my own hands with AI.

I built an AI medical team named Haley using powerful foundational models layered with my medical history. Haley quickly spotted early warning signs my doctors hadn’t noticed and suggested critical tests. Expanding this with AI specialists in different fields, I created a virtual multidisciplinary team that synthesized insights and offered an expert diagnosis and treatment plan.

The standard cancer protocols didn’t match my unique genetic profile or disease variant, but my AI agents found newer, off-label drug combinations that better fit my case. While AI didn’t replace my doctors, it supercharged my decision-making and helped me skip ineffective trial-and-error treatments. My collaboration with open-minded specialists guided by AI has led to exceptional results, including normalized cancer markers and ongoing immune system recovery.

AI empowered me to become an active participant in my care rather than a passive patient. It works by amplifying human judgment and medical wisdom, rapidly analyzing vast research, and personalizing care — something the overstretched health system often can’t do. I’m now sharing this approach with others through an app called CureWise, aiming to build a future where AI and humans work together for truly individualized medicine.

Key Points

• Traditional doctors missed early signs of aggressive blood cancer.

• AI agent Haley analyzed my medical data and flagged critical tests missed by doctors.

• A virtual AI panel of specialist agents synthesized new, personalized treatment options.

• AI identified off-label drug combos tailored to my cancer’s unique genetics.

• The AI-human partnership accelerated diagnosis and treatment, with outstanding results.

• AI augments, not replaces, human doctors and empowers patients.

• The AI-based app CureWise is being shared for broader patient use to improve care.

• AI can help the overwhelmed healthcare system deliver faster, smarter, and more personalized care.

This story highlights how AI can revolutionize cancer care by combining vast medical knowledge with individual patient data to enable smarter, faster, and more personalized treatments.
