Not just a symptom log. The documentation comes with it.
A migraine tracker built around the three people who actually need your data: your neurologist, your insurance company, and whoever handles accommodations at your job or school.
Written by Cerebral Torque, author of Unraveling MigraineWho each page is forYour neurologist
Sees every attack, dated, with pain maps, triggers, aura and what you actually took. Plus a one-page summary with room for the ICHD-3 diagnosis and matching ICD-10 code.
Your insurance
Gets migraine days, headache days, acute medication days, scored MIDAS and HIT-6, and a failed treatment log with drug, dose, duration and reason stopped. That last one is what most CGRP mAb and gepant approvals hinge on. For Botox there is the four-hour rule: headache days that lasted four hours or more, counted separately, month by month.
Your job or school
FMLA intermittent leave documentation, ADA reasonable accommodation requests and Section 504 plans, already written out. You fill in the blanks instead of starting from a blank page.
What's inside1Daily attack logsStart and stop times, pain score, a four-view head map to circle exactly where it hurts, prodrome and aura, medication taken and whether it worked, and how much of the day you lost.2Monthly calendarsA clean marking key that separates migraine days from other headache days, with a running monthly count.3Summary page for your neurologistMigraine days, headache days, acute medication days and treatment response in one place, ready to hand over.4MIDAS and HIT-6A MIDAS worksheet you can score yourself, plus space to record HIT-6 results over time.5Failed treatment logBuilt for prior authorization. Drug name, dose, how long you tried it, and why you stopped.6Botox for chronic migraineThe four-hour count broken out month by month: headache days, days lasting four hours or more, and migraine days. Plus an injection log with date, total units, who injected, how you responded and when the next cycle is due.7Appeals trackerDates, reference numbers and what was said, so a denial does not turn into a paperwork scramble.Which edition90-Day Edition88 pages · 3 months6-Month Edition144 pages · 180 daysBest for prior authorization6-MonthBest for Botox renewals6-MonthInsurers and neurologists usually want three to six months of consistent records before approving a preventive. The 90-day edition covers the minimum. The 6-month edition covers the full window in one book, so you are not stapling two logs together at your appointment. Botox renewal usually rests on your result after two 12-week cycles, which is 24 weeks, so the 6-month edition is the one to pick there too.
Large 8.5 x 11 inch paperback with real room to write. Black and white interior on white paper, glossy cover, perfect bound.This book is a documentation tool. It is not medical advice and does not replace care from a qualified clinician.
