Using Migraine Buddy
1 – Open a daily, weekly or monthly record: you can test different record durations and adopt the most comfortable for you.
2 – Keep the record open and add notes in the Notes section with the time stamp feature, to account for changes in pain intensity for instance – try not to add too many notes to a record, so that it remains easily readable when you export your records for your doctor.
3 – When you have finished recording, press ‘Remind me later’ so that your ongoing record is saved and kept open for later changes.
