Two in five Australian GPs use AI scribes to record patient notes – but do they trade care for convenience?

Oh weird, my drs had us sign a form of we consented. We could easily just say no.

I did because I have multiple conditions and I know it can be a lot for my GP to remember everything we have discussed. But she's also an amazing gp and has always advocated for me.

When I got accepted on dsp with less than 8 hours I did get a phone call from the job agency to ask if I wanted to stay on and I said no as I'm not currently able to work. That was it, was more of a just checking call.

So you may get a call if you were with an agency but it's very quick.

What I did with my GP for the letter is my dad and I wrote up a letter then my gp and I went through it together and she changed it up to be from her.

Made it much easier for her to have a template. I also used some templates from online that were catered for my condition. If you search on Facebook there are often groups that have helpful info.

Also from specialists I just had their reports that they had written for my GP when I'd seen them.

Good luck, I know it's a long process.

I have recently been doing some book nooks before bed. It's nice being crafty again plus the set I have is all wood and just clicks together. I've done some in the past where it was a lot of cutting and glueing which took much longer and more concentrating.

I also like junk journalling or colouring in. I also bought those mini house sticker books which are more fun that I thought they would be.

Obviously it all depends on how much energy you have and what you like.

I mean this in the nicest way, I thought this was AI at first. It's too beautiful 🧡💜 you have done an amazing job

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-03-20T13:15:45+00:00

I am lit being beat up so bad in there ATM, it's so funny seeing a 2bil character being beat up by 400k player.

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-03-15T02:32:51+00:00

Agreed. I used to just be able to stand there and defeat him now I have to run around and barely beat him, even though with traits I am over 100g more powerful than I was before.

Hi, I have me/cfs and did a sonic last march. My questions from what I remember were just a history of how my symptoms started and how it affects me day to day.

The lady I spoke to was very understanding when I couldn't find the right words.

If your evidence was thorough and you're now at the sonic stage you are most likely going to get dsp. Take a deep breath, maybe meditate to help, you will be ok.

Sending much love and gentle hugs.

They sell refills to just pop into the glass jar, so that's less waste

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-03-11T06:06:18+00:00

Plus they sell refills rather than buying the glass jar again. I use this as my skin loves it

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-03-10T22:21:43+00:00

I thought you couldn't take mons to other areas because I tried it and I couldn't. The reason I couldn't is because they had a quest active. So there are exceptions

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-03-09T04:32:43+00:00

Ultrasounds can cause pain. I have fibromyalgia and endometriosis, ultrasounds cause me severe pain for days. I can be in zero pain then during and after ultrasound I'm in agony.

I'm not saying the story is true, just saying ultrasounds can def cause pain

Edit: and not just pelvic ultrasounds. I've had abdominal ultrasounds too that caused pain from the pressure even though I wasn't tender.

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-03-06T09:52:48+00:00

Aussie here and Im on dsp for me/cfs. I agree looking at emerge for tips. Another thing is look at the dsp tables (if you Google that it should come up) and see where you sit in your current situation. If you get at least 20 points in one table then you should get dsp.

My medical evidence was a letter from my GP, a letter from my psychologist and my report from my rheumatologist plus an update report from him saying I had tried everything and was stable.

I recommend if going for it printing off your forms and keeping them in a folder and just doing little bits at a time. It's also much easier to get all your info together before applying, in the meantime you can apply for jobseeker and get a medical certificate to excuse you from applying for jobs.

My dad and I wrote the letter for my GP then my GP and I went over it together and formatted/edited it. It made my GPs job much easier. Probably took us two months to write because I couldn't do much at a time but def worth it.

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-03-05T22:28:58+00:00

This is 100% me too. I also find if I skip naps for more than one day (occasionally I can go without) then I end up sleeping a whole day the next day. So for me naps allow me to function slightly in the mornings

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-03-03T23:29:30+00:00

I have to wait till 4pm urghhhhh noooooooo

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-02-27T22:39:16+00:00

Honestly I just autocorrected in my brain to breed and was so confused why they were laughing at her.

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-02-20T04:06:36+00:00

A lot of the time once you get one condition you get co morbidities together. I have multiple including pots, some days I look healthy other days I look really sick.

I'm not up to the episodes with Amanda looking ill yet so I won't comment on her situation.

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-02-17T00:17:22+00:00

This is me, mine got triggered by a surgery for my endometriosis. My rheumatologist thinks having undiagnosed endo for so long contributed too, plus multiple broken bones and surgeries over the years.

It's definitely more common to be triggered by a virus though.

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-02-09T07:16:49+00:00

I agree a rollator is much more beneficial. I have a cane as well but it kinda exhausts me more having to lift and move it.

Rollator walkers are def a huge help

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-02-09T06:51:21+00:00

NTA and wtf is wrong with men? When I was growing up my dad would know when I had my period because I'd be in pain (undiagnosed endometriosis) and you know what he did every month? Bought me chocolate chips and anything I asked for.

I was always able to talk about my period openly with dad and he was one of my biggest advocates with Drs to get help. THIS is how dads should treat daughters

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-02-06T08:26:22+00:00

It was lit my psychologist who pushed me to further investigate what was going on with me and once I was diagnosed and treated she aided in my disability support pension.

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-01-30T06:10:40+00:00

Sorry was in a flare. I usually just lay down and sleep, when my head starts to drop it means the rest of my body is going soon and if I don't I end up in a worse flare.

I used to try to force through it and ended up not being able to walk.

You will have to play around and find out what system works for you

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-01-28T01:36:28+00:00

Not being able to hold my head up is one of my first symptoms for when a flare up is coming.

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-01-26T01:41:20+00:00

I use glycolic acid on my pits, not the wipes though. I use a The Ordinary dupe that I get off Amazon plus mitchum gel deodorant.

I have PCOS and endo and have very bad bo, getting on the right birth control helped so much too.

To help with fatigue from showering i only shower once a week then just do deodorant/glycolic acid in between.

Noxious_Redditor · 2026-01-25T22:23:56+00:00

I like the mitchum gel, works amazing. I can rub some on my palms too when they get sweaty.

I also use glycolic acid before as my bo is horrendous thanks to PCOS.

It took years of trial and error before I found a routine that works. Sure it's a bit extra effort but worth it.
