Example file (patient-profile.json): ``json { "age": 45, "sex": "female", "weight": { "value": 150, "unit": "lbs" }, "height": { "value": 65, "unit": "in" }, "chronicConditions": ["Type 2 Diabetes", "Hypertension"], "medications": ["Metformin 500mg twice daily", "Lisinopril 10mg daily"], "allergies": ["Penicillin", "Shellfish"], "surgicalHistory": ["Appendectomy (2015)"], "familyHistory": ["Mother: Breast cancer", "Father: Heart disease"] } ``
All fields are optional. Copy patient-profile.example.json to patient-profile.json and customize it.
