"Chat GPT diagnosed my blood cancer" says woman who put symptoms down to grief

SWNS

A woman discovered she had blood cancer after ChatGPT suggested the diagnosis.  Marly Garnreiter, 27, initially dismissed the AI’s suggestion, believing her night sweats and weight loss were due to grief after losing her father in January 2024.  As her symptoms worsened, she saw a doctor, who found a mass on her lung, leading to a Hodgkin’s lymphoma diagnosis in February 2025.  Now undergoing chemotherapy, Marly urges people to listen to their bodies and stay aware of their health.

00:00I've been having symptoms for over a year and I didn't pay attention to them.

00:04These were mainly weight loss without changing anything in my diet.

00:08I had also night sweats.

00:10I would wake up drenched in my own sweat for no reason but I thought my weight loss and

00:16my night sweats were connected to the fact that I lost my dad.

00:19I thought it was all about anxiety.

00:22And then the third symptom I had was my skin was so itchy.

00:27I would itch my skin until I was basically bleeding.

00:30But I put creams and it helped so I didn't really pay so much attention to it.

00:35And then the last one which brought me to my diagnosis was I felt a constant pressure

00:40in my chest.

00:41It was hurting quite badly and I didn't know if it was my heart or my breast but it ended

00:47up being my lung.

00:48So please, please pay attention to every single symptom.

00:53It is so important.
