Symptom Tracker

I don’t know if this will help anyone with an autoimmune stomach disorder but this is the form I use to track my issues and try to see trends. I just write what happened when. So like if I had extreme pain at 6am under my rib cage I’ll write (6a/extreme/under ribs) in the pain section. Sometimes tracking can help me get through it too.

Here it is! Feel free to copy and paste for your own diary!

Notes:
What happened overnight?
What are the trends?
What did you do yesterday or the last few days that contributed to today?
How are you feeling emotionally?

Pain:
(Time/where/how bad)

Nausea:
(Time/how bad)

Heart Pounding:

Weird Feeling:
(Time/what/what happened after?)

Good Poop:

All awful symptoms (sick ASF):
This category is for when you feel like bloody hell and are ready to call the hospital or already have called. The goal is to never have to write here again lol.

Urge no output:

This is for when you have to poop/pee and can’t
Or for yay!!! When you think you’ll puke but don’t

I am trying to gain control over my pain #trackingpain

I am keeping a calendar where I mark where my pain is at when I wake up and go to sleep. Chronic pain is something I have, but not something that I will let control my life. #ChronicPain #ChronicIllness #Fibromyalgia #EhlersDanlosSyndrome #Vasculitis #Lupus #Arthritis
