What are you reading?

Are you inside, cuddled up with a good book?

Me, too. I’m currently reading Robin Cook’s Cell.   It’s interesting that the premise is idoc, an instant doctor app on your phone. It goes farther into the future when all you have to do is hold the phone up to you to monitor your vitals and there is an instant doctor to tell you what you should do or not do.

Even though this is fiction it isn’t far into our future. On Dr. Phil the other day he introduced Doctor on Demand, an app that you can download and have instant access to a real qualified board certified doctor who can even write prescriptions.  And I had seen on the news a while ago a phone that can take your vitals and record them. It won’t be long until all of our medical information will be on an electronic file accessible to our doctors and hospital. The future is here folks.
