• holding, at -10- summary judgment, that an inmate’s “bare assertion” did not “allege[] a serious medical need”
• prison provided escalating level of treatment for inmates’ ailments over time, and inmate's disagreement with course of medical treatment was insufficient basis for Eighth Amendment violation
• inmate’s self-diagnosis could not establish that he had medical condition, and medical evidence did not support existence of condition; thus, inmate had not shown serious medical need
• plaintiff’s “bare assertion” of a serious medical condition was insufficient to establish deliberate indifference
