Looking for How do you keep your diaries please?

I dont get the headaches but im told my visual disturbance and other neuro symptoms are migraine aura. I have trouble differentiate start and end times so i dont know how to begin documenting anything. I am hoping to get a follow up neurologist appointment within the next month and an eye doctor told me to do a diary but i just dont know how to do this . I dont think its food /drink related.. any help would be appreciated.

Thank you for your replies!

I have started using this and i do think its a good app & easy to use.

Not sure if its going to help me figure out anything though but for a diary app that is pretty much what i had mind and is better than other ones ive seen.

I inputted a week of info which i took to show my GP yesterday. Unfortunately the doctor couldnt have been less interested and didnt even look at it.

To be fair it wasnt very informative as i basically just had the same visual symptom constantly for the 8 days so not much to go on 😞. Perhaps it will be worthwhile when something (anything!) changes!

Not what you're looking for?
