How to use this sheet
- Print the PDF — one page covers about three weeks.
- Each day, log the symptom you're tracking with its severity and roughly when it happened.
- Note anything that stood out that day — poor sleep, a new food, high stress, a weather change, an intense workout.
- After two or three weeks, look for patterns — the same factor appearing before your worse days.
- Bring the filled sheets to your appointment. Even a rough dated log is better than trying to remember weeks later.
Questions
Is this tracker really free?
Yes. The PDF is free to download and print — no sign-up, no email.
What conditions is this useful for?
Anything that varies day-to-day — chronic pain, skin flares, gut symptoms, headaches, joint stiffness, neuropathy, fatigue. It's deliberately generic so you can use it for the specific thing you're tracking.
Should I show this to my doctor?
That's the intended use. Doctors often have to work from patient recall, which is unreliable for anything episodic. A dated log — even a rough one — gives them something concrete to work with.
Is there an app for my specific condition?
Softgrove makes single-purpose iPhone trackers for eczema (Skinote), gout (GoutLog), IBS (Settura), acid reflux (RefluxLog), neuropathy (NerveLog), and more. All are free at the core and keep data on your device — see the Apps page.
Want the log to analyze itself?
Skinote for iPhone tracks the same things in seconds and shows you the patterns — free core, no account, and everything stays on your device.
