Another site that allows for online journaling with specific questions for a range of chronic conditions, plus nutrition, fitness and goal setting is http://www.symptomjournal.com
Hi! We developed an app for BlackBerry, iPhone and iPod touch for patients with headache. It is called iHeadache. We are working on a web version as well. Patients can track symptoms, disability, triggers and medications. Right now there is a small charge for the app but we just got sponsorship from a pharmaceutical company so a free version will be out in June! Check us out at http://www.iHeadacheApp.com.
Forgot to mention... iHeadache was developed by a neurologist named Brian D. Loftus, M.D. If any physicians would like brochures to give to patients please request them. We are happy to send them to you.
