First-person post: patient says the AI summary of a doctor's appointment listed, among current medications, a drug the patient has never taken
In a Bluesky post on 14 October 2026, a patient says their doctor asked whether they minded his use of AI to summarise the appointment the day before. The patient says they explained their objections and then consented because they wanted to see the summary it generated. When the summary was posted in the patient portal, it listed among the patient's current medications a drug the patient says they do not take and have never taken. In a reply shortly afterwards the patient said the drug had not made its way to the official medication list but was listed in the clinical notes. In other replies the patient said they had messaged the doctor and did not yet know the response. The AI product is not named, the medication is not named, the summary was not published and the doctor's account is not known.
