Say Ahh
How to prepare for a doctor's appointment with a symptom list
You've had the headaches for three weeks and you know exactly what you want to say. Then you sit down, the doctor asks "so what brings you in?", and you forget the dates, the medication and the one question you came for.

- Productivity
Sample you can paste
Appointment: GP, Thursday, 10 minutes. Notes in my phone: headaches since about 10 Oct, worse in the afternoon. Started new job with lots of screen time around then. Took ibuprofen maybe 8 times. Sleeping badly, 5-6 hours. Once the headache came with blurry vision for 20 min (17 Oct?). Drinking 4 coffees a day. My mum gets migraines. Medication: ibuprofen 400 mg when needed, the pill. What I'm worried about: is the blurry vision serious? Do I need my eyes checked?
Steps
Step 1
Dump your notes
Paste everything in any order: what you feel, since when, what makes it better or worse, what you've tried. Notes from your phone are fine.
Step 2
Add medication and history
What you take and how often, allergies, and anything that runs in the family if it seems related.
Step 3
Say what worries you
The one thing you really want answered. This becomes the first question, so it doesn't get lost at the end of the appointment.
Step 4
Take the page with you
A one-page summary you can read out or hand over, a short timeline, and the three questions to ask first.
What you get
What you put in and what you get out
When to use it
Use it the evening before a doctor's appointment, when your symptoms are spread across phone notes and memory and you know you only get ten minutes.
When to skip it
It's not a doctor and it doesn't diagnose, rate how serious something is or suggest treatment. It only reorganises what you write. If something feels urgent, like chest pain, trouble breathing or sudden weakness, call emergency services instead of preparing notes.

Full prompt
say-ahh.prompt.txt
You help people prepare for a doctor's appointment. You organise their own notes into a clear one-page summary and questions. You are not a doctor: you never diagnose, never say how serious something is, and never suggest treatment or dosage changes.
INPUT
- Symptom notes in any order, with rough dates if known.
- Medication and supplements, how often they take them, allergies.
- Relevant history or family history, if the user mentions it.
- The appointment type and how long it is.
- What worries them most.
HOW TO WORK
1. If something you need is missing (when it started, medication, what they want to ask), ask up to three short questions. Then stop and wait.
2. If the notes describe a red flag (chest pain, trouble breathing, sudden weakness or numbness, sudden severe headache, confusion, fainting, heavy bleeding, thoughts of self-harm), say clearly at the top that they should get urgent medical help now instead of waiting for the appointment.
3. Sort the symptoms into a timeline with dates. Mark rough dates as approximate.
4. List what makes it better or worse, what they've tried and what happened.
5. List medication in a clean table: name, dose if given, how often.
6. Write a two-sentence opener the user can say first: what, since when, and the main worry.
7. Pick three questions, the main worry first. Keep them open so the doctor can explain.
RULES
- Use only what the user wrote. Never add symptoms, causes or diagnoses.
- No medical advice, no reassurance like "it's probably nothing", no alarm.
- Plain words, short lines, fits on one page.
- Remind the user to leave out names and ID numbers if they pasted them.

How it works
Doctor's appointments are short, and most of what you meant to say happens in the car on the way home. The dates blur, the medication list is incomplete, and the question you actually came for gets asked at the door, if at all.
This agent does the boring prep. It puts your symptoms in date order, pulls out what made them better or worse, lists what you take, and picks the three questions to ask first. It doesn't diagnose anything.
What to paste
Your symptom notes in any order, with rough dates. What you take (including painkillers and the pill), allergies, anything relevant in the family, and the one thing that worries you most. Leave out your name and other identifying details.
What you get back
A one-page summary you can read out or hand over: a two-sentence opener, a short timeline, what helps and what makes it worse, medication, and three questions in order of importance. If something you wrote sounds like it needs urgent care, it tells you to get help now instead of waiting for the appointment.
Questions about Say Ahh
Will it tell me what I have?
No, on purpose. It doesn't guess diagnoses or say how serious something is, because it can't examine you. It turns your notes into a clear timeline and questions so your doctor can do that faster and with better information.
Is it safe to paste health details into a chatbot?
Leave out your name, birth date, insurance number and anything else that identifies you. The prompt works fine with just symptoms, dates and medication. Check your chatbot's privacy settings if you'd rather it doesn't keep the chat.
Is Say Ahh free?
Yes. The prompt is free to copy, download, and reuse under CC-BY-4.0. There is no sign-up on One Agent a Day. You only need access to a chat model such as ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini.
Which AI tools does Say Ahh work in?
It was written for ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. It is a plain-text prompt, so any capable chat model can run it. Paste the prompt first, then your input.
What do I paste into Say Ahh?
Dump your notes. Paste everything in any order: what you feel, since when, what makes it better or worse, what you've tried. Notes from your phone are fine.
