I am an IT engineer in my 30s and am currently considering taking up MBBS or a course in the allied fields.

The following post will give you an idea of the feedback received: https://www.reddit.com/r/MBBSindia/comments/1swyprr/mbbs_in_your_30s/

Nonetheless, I would like to learn the basics of medicine and work my way through the general content covered in medicine while holding on to my job.

I have started with the following online course: https://oli.cmu.edu/courses/anatomy-physiology-i-ii-v2-academic/

Are there any other reliable resources that I can use online/offline. Any certifications/diplomas/degrees worth doing online? Maybe even part-time offline programmes?

Hi! I am a BTech grad with few years of IT experience. I took a break during the pandemic and then joined another MNC. However, over the past few years since the pandemic I have seen medical issues and costs rise rapidly in my family. From Parkinson's to epilepsy, all age groups are being affected and medical help isn't always available or easily accessible. I am considering taking up MBBS or a degree in allied fields like nursing or radiology, to not just better understand these issues but also help my relatives as conditions get worse. I know there will be a lot of pros and cons, but I do want to hear the experience of some of the people who have gone through this - why did you do it? what were the challenges you faced? was it worth it? Would be grateful for any advice, opinions etc.
