+# Medical Chatbot - Recent Improvements
+
+## Issues Fixed
+
+### 1. Model Initialization Error
+**Problem**: "404 models/gemini-1.5-flash is not found"
+**Solution**: 
+- Added automatic model fallback mechanism
+- Tries multiple model names until one works:
+  - `models/gemini-pro`
+  - `gemini-pro`
+  - `models/gemini-1.5-pro`
+  - `gemini-1.5-pro`
+
+### 2. Wrong/Inaccurate Answers
+**Problem**: The model was giving incorrect or irrelevant answers
+
+**Solutions Applied**:
+
+#### A. Improved Prompt Engineering
+- **Before**: Complex multi-step instructions
+- **After**: Direct, clear instructions to use ONLY context information
+- Added "DO NOT make up or guess information"
+- Structured prompt with clear sections
+
+#### B. Lower Temperature Setting
+- Set `temperature=0.3` (default is 0.7)
+- This makes responses more factual and less creative
+- Better for medical information accuracy
+
+#### C. Better Context Formatting
+- Clear source citations in context
+- Better structured context presentation
+- Easier for model to parse and use information
+
+#### D. Enhanced Generation Config
+```python
+generation_config={
+    "temperature": 0.3,  # Lower for factual responses
+    "top_p": 0.8,        # Nucleus sampling
+    "top_k": 40,         # Token selection limit
+    "max_output_tokens": 500,  # Concise responses
+}
+```
+
+#### E. Improved Retrieval
+- Filters results by similarity threshold (0.5)
+- Only returns highly relevant medical content
+- Better context quality = better answers
+
+## Current Configuration
+
+- **Embedding Model**: sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2
+- **LLM Model**: Auto-detected Gemini model
+- **Database**: 3,012 medical documents from MultiMedQA
+- **Top K Retrieval**: 5 most relevant chunks
+- **Similarity Threshold**: 0.5 (minimum relevance score)
+
+## How It Works Now
+
+1. **User asks a medical question**
+2. **Query is embedded** using Sentence Transformers
+3. **Pinecone searches** for similar medical content (top 5 results)
+4. **Results are filtered** by similarity score (≥0.5)
+5. **Context is formatted** with clear citations
+6. **Gemini generates answer** using ONLY the retrieved context
+7. **Response includes**:
+   - Factual answer from medical database
+   - Citations with sources
+   - Confidence score
+   - Medical disclaimer
+
+## Testing the Improvements
+
+Try these questions to verify accuracy:
+- "What are the symptoms of diabetes?"
+- "How is hypertension treated?"
+- "Explain cardiac arrhythmia"
+- "What causes chest pain?"
+
+## Key Improvements Summary
+
+✅ Model auto-detection (tries multiple models)
+✅ Lower temperature for factual responses
+✅ Clearer prompt instructions
+✅ Better context formatting
+✅ Improved error handling
+✅ Debug logging for troubleshooting
+
+The chatbot should now provide **accurate, factual medical information** based solely on the retrieved context from the medical database.

+# Quick Start Guide 🚀
+
+## Step 1: Get API Keys
+
+### 1.1 Get Pinecone API Key
+1. Go to https://www.pinecone.io/
+2. Sign up for a free account
+3. Create a new project
+4. Copy your API key from the dashboard
+
+### 1.2 Get Google API Key
+1. Go to https://makersuite.google.com/app/apikey
+2. Sign in with your Google account
+3. Create a new API key
+4. Copy the API key
+
+## Step 2: Set Up Environment
+
+1. Copy `.env.example` to `.env`:
+```bash
+# On Windows PowerShell:
+Copy-Item .env.example .env
+
+# On Linux/Mac:
+cp .env.example .env
+```
+
+2. Edit `.env` and add your API keys:
+```env
+PINECONE_API_KEY=your_actual_key_here
+PINECONE_ENVIRONMENT=us-east1
+GOOGLE_API_KEY=your_actual_key_here
+```
+
+## Step 3: Install Dependencies
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+## Step 4: Initialize Database
+
+Run the setup script to load medical data into Pinecone:
+```bash
+python setup_database.py
+```
+
+**Note:** This may take a few minutes to download and process the data.
+
+## Step 5: Run the Application
+
+```bash
+streamlit run app.py
+```
+
+## Step 6: Start Chatting!
+
+1. Open your browser to the URL shown (usually http://localhost:8501)
+2. Type a medical question in the chat box
+3. Get answers with citations and confidence scores!
+
+## Example Questions to Try
+
+- "What are the symptoms of diabetes?"
+- "How is high blood pressure treated?"
+- "What causes chest pain?"
+- "Explain heart disease risk factors"
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Error: "No module named 'x'"
+Run: `pip install -r requirements.txt`
+
+### Error: "API Key not found"
+Check your `.env` file exists and has correct keys
+
+### Error: "Index not found"
+Run: `python setup_database.py`
+
+### Slow responses
+- First query might be slower as models load
+- Ensure you have good internet connection
+
+## Next Steps
+
+- Experiment with different medical questions
+- Check out the citations and confidence scores
+- Read the README.md for more details
+- Customize `config.py` for your needs
+
+Happy chatting! 🎉

+# Medical Chatbot 🏥
+
+An intelligent medical question-answering chatbot that uses retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) with Gemini 1.5 Flash, Sentence Transformers, and Pinecone DB.
+
+## Features
+
+- 🤖 Powered by Gemini 1.5 Flash for natural language understanding
+- 📊 Uses Sentence Transformers for semantic search
+- 🔍 Retrieves relevant medical information from vector database
+- 📚 Provides citations with source attribution
+- 🎯 Confidence scoring for each response
+- 🌐 Beautiful Streamlit interface
+- ⚠️ Important disclaimers for medical advice
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+1. Python 3.8 or higher
+2. Pinecone account (https://www.pinecone.io/)
+3. Google AI Studio API key (https://makersuite.google.com/app/apikey)
+4. Hugging Face account (optional, for accessing datasets)
+
+## Installation
+
+**For detailed step-by-step instructions, see [QUICK_START.md](QUICK_START.md)**
+
+1. Clone or download this repository
+
+2. Install dependencies:
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+3. Create a `.env` file in the root directory:
+```env
+PINECONE_API_KEY=your_pinecone_api_key_here
+PINECONE_ENVIRONMENT=us-east1
+GOOGLE_API_KEY=your_google_api_key_here
+```
+
+4. Set up the database:
+```bash
+python setup_database.py
+```
+
+This will download medical data from Hugging Face and upload it to Pinecone.
+
+## Usage
+
+Run the Streamlit application:
+```bash
+streamlit run app.py
+```
+
+Open your browser to the URL shown (typically http://localhost:8501)
+
+**Quick Start Guide:** [QUICK_START.md](QUICK_START.md)
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. **Data Loading**: Medical questions and answers are loaded from Hugging Face datasets
+2. **Embedding**: Texts are converted to embeddings using Sentence Transformers
+3. **Vector Storage**: Embeddings are stored in Pinecone for fast similarity search
+4. **Query Processing**: User queries are embedded and searched against the database
+5. **Response Generation**: Gemini 1.5 Flash generates responses based on retrieved context
+6. **Citation**: Sources are tracked and displayed with confidence scores
+
+## Important Disclaimers
+
+- ⚠️ **This is not medical advice**
+- ⚠️ **Not a substitute for professional healthcare**
+- ⚠️ **Always consult healthcare professionals for medical decisions**
+- ⚠️ **Confidence scores indicate data quality, not medical accuracy**
+
+## Configuration
+
+Edit `config.py` to customize:
+- Embedding model
+- Number of retrieved documents (TOP_K)
+- Similarity threshold
+- Dataset selection
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "API Key not found"
+- Ensure your `.env` file exists and contains valid API keys
+
+### "Index not found"
+- Run `python setup_database.py` to create the Pinecone index
+
+### "No results found"
+- The similarity threshold might be too high
+- Adjust `SIMILARITY_THRESHOLD` in `config.py`
