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.
