MeNome vs Trace Elements

Your labs were normal. Your days weren’t. MeNome is a clinical record and a pattern engine, held by the patient. It was built for the person who has been sick for years, has a folder of results that all came back “normal,” and has stopped expecting to be believed. Forty-five seconds a night builds a dated, structured record of your illness as it is actually lived. Every night an engine built for clinical research reads that record against every night before it. By about two weeks you have something no memory can give you: the dates, the pattern, and one plain sentence for the next appointment. THE RECORD Five symptoms on a clinical scale: pain, bloating, nausea, fatigue, bowel function. Then food, fluid, sleep, mood and a note if you have them. Every entry is dated the night it is made. Nothing is reconstructed later. The vocabulary follows the Rome criteria, the international standard gastroenterologists use, so the record speaks a clinician’s language without asking you to learn it. THE ENGINE MeNome does not count your symptoms. It reads them together: which move with which, which lead and which follow, what precedes your worst days, and whether the system is holding its line or beginning to break apart. It says “still calibrating” while the record is short rather than inventing a finding. BELLYSCORE Your gut on a 0 to 100 scale anchored to your own baseline, reported in four bands: Steady, Sensitive, Strained, Flared. It measures you against you, never against a healthy stranger. THE MAP Six connected systems, redrawn every night from your record. Your symptoms never stayed in one specialty. Neither does the map. THE PHYSIOLOGICAL READ An optional thirty-second read of your nervous system through the camera and microphone. Nothing to wear, nothing to buy. Skip it whenever you like. THE SENTENCE, AND THE EXPORT “This is the fourth episode in ninety days. Here are the dates.” When the record has shape, MeNome puts it into one plain sentence with the dates behind it, and exports a summary a clinician reads in a minute. We cannot promise how the visit goes. We can promise you will not walk in from memory. THE FORECAST (PREMIUM) With enough record, the engine projects your own pattern forward: the conditions that have preceded your worst days, and the direction the coming weeks are likely to take if nothing changes. Drawn only from your history, stated with its uncertainty. It is not a diagnosis. NO STREAKS, NO SHAME Miss a night, miss a week. Nothing resets, nothing scolds. A record with gaps is still a record, and still more than memory. YOURS Your record belongs to you. Never sold, never traded, shared only when you choose to export it. Delete your account and it is deleted.

Trace Elements is a private, offline food diary for people on a restricted diet — a low-nickel diet for Systemic Nickel Allergy Syndrome (SNAS) or nickel-sensitive dermatitis, or a low-cobalt diet. Log what you eat and the app estimates how much nickel (or cobalt) each meal and each day adds up to, against a daily limit you set. It works fully offline, has no account, no ads, and no tracking. Your data stays on your iPhone.

Managing it day to day was harder than it needed to be, and this was the only way I knew how to help. If it makes your days a little easier too, it's done its job.
