> She scheduled an appointment with a new neurosurgeon and told her she suspected Alex had tethered cord syndrome. The doctor looked at his MRI images and knew exactly what was wrong with Alex

Doesn't this kind of summarize the article? She went to 17 doctors who did not know about the illness. ChatGPT pointed her to a competent individual who immediately diagnosed it. My understanding is that ChatGPT's diagnosis is wrong because tethered cord syndrome typically occurs after a surgery to correct a spinal bifida which is what the neurosurgeon diagnosed.
