<human>: Good day! Yes, this is a throw away account. I'll try to keep this as brief as possible. Long story short, I have an idea for an invention. I'm a pretty quiet and humble person but I do think it's a really good idea.  What I do know, having worked in the medical field for a length of time, that this idea is something that would be WIDELY used (even outside of the medical field). While I do have ideas on how to turn this idea into a physical item, I have no idea where to go after that. I've done basic research and have not found any patient (existing or pending) that is related to such an item. The whole patient process seems to be way beyond my knowledge and my budget. I've been lamenting over this idea for months and the longer I'm aware of it, the more I see the need for this idea to come to life. 
Where do I start? Has anyone (or someone that they personally know) actually gone through this process? Any help is really appreciated. Thank you for even taking the time to read this.

Can you provide a brief rundown of the text in within 3 sentences?
<bot>: I have an idea for an invention, am willing to put in the effort to make it a physical item but where do I go from here?
