Most of these Journals are non-profit so that they are accessible to as many people as possible at an affordable cost to hopefully enable you to help yourself. It can be frustrating to arrive for your G.P / Consultant appointment and then to realise afterwards that you had forgotten to mention relevant information about your symptoms.

A great way to both possibly assist in diagnosis by way of keeping accurate symptom records for your medical practitioner and also a tool to keep track of aggravating factors.

There are numerous body diagrams so you can mark problem areas as they occur. This is also a useful tool in relation to providing personal information for areas such as insurance or assistance for disability related financial aid should you require help in these areas. You can refer to your Journal/Diary to give a personal insight into how your day to day activities are affected by your illness.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

As someone with a close friend who experiences chronic health problems, I designed the CFS/ME/Fibromyalgia Journal for their personal use. After realising just how useful my friend found it and following requests from his friends at a support group for copies, I decided to publish it so that others could utilize the illness specific sections. It proved to be extremely popular, so further illness specific journals have been designed with the same aim in mind. From Lupus to ME to Heart Failure to HIV. Many chronic health conditions though medically completely different in essence, have symptoms in common : pain, fatigue, physical restrictions, that can impact on day to day functioning. Using these journals may help to identify triggers, help to pace and possibly become a resource to provide your medical health professional a detailed personal picture of what you experience day to day, especially helpful for fluctuating conditions. They are non-profit so that as many chronically ill people as possible can have affordable access to them. Besides these wonderful little journals, I write fiction. One of my books, 'Fable's Golden Ring' is a fantasy novel which I actually got the idea from during a rather adventurous nightmare! I tend to jot down my more adventurous dreams in my dream journal (another useful book!), several years ago, after noting down details of a rather colourful dream, the seed for Fable's Golden Ring was planted. Four hundred and odd pages later, it came to fruition and was so much fun to write! If you read it, I hope you enjoy! Good luck and good health.
