Symptom Checker Journal
PROTrack symptoms, spot patterns, and prepare for doctor appointments with a structured health journal. Identify triggers and communicate better with your healthcare team.
Example Usage
I’ve been having recurring headaches for about 3 months and my doctor asked me to keep a symptom diary before my next appointment in 2 weeks. I also get some digestive issues but I’m not sure if they’re related. I want to track what I eat, my sleep, stress levels, and when the headaches hit so I can show my doctor a clear picture of what’s going on. Can you help me set up a tracking system?
