Junk mail

Just a warning to everyone. If you make an account with this app, you will be inundated with spam. I’ve never signed up for something that has put me on so many mailing lists. I know this app was the cause because I very rarely get junk mail. But within days of signing up for this, the spam came pouring in. So, make an account at your own risk.

Great App So Far

Lots of educational
Info available! Needed a way to begin to log and track my pain and determine what makes things worse …and to learn how to make coping with chronic pain a bit easier. Lots of ways to detail one’s pain seem to be available on this app.

Best Pain Tracking App - Hands Down!

I’ve been using this for years. The ability to pinpoint locations and type of pain, integration with weather, and reports are very informative. I’ve tried other apps and non come close to how wonderful this app is! If I had anything to add, I’d say allowing integration with MyFitnessPal would make it perfection. That way you wouldn’t have to log food separately.
