Sciensus: Companion

After initial set up, which is easy, it reminds you when to take medication. It logs all symptoms, how you're feeling and when you take your meds. It also gives tips and ideas to help with side effects. The aftercare with Anastasiia is second to none! She is so friendly, welcoming and genuinely cares and appreciates everyone!

I have tried several breast cancer apps out there even ones you pay for, but the Vinehealth: Cancer Companion is the best one by far. It’s ease of use with recording appointments, medication and an area to record how you are feeling, symptoms and activities. There is also a useful tips section and articles. I have used this everyday since downloading it as I like to monitor my own wellbeing and any changes in symptoms between chemotherapy treatments. It is also a useful tool to share any information I have recorded with my Oncologist and Cancer Nurses.

This is a great app for a cancer patient. I’ve used health apps with daily logging before but it’s felt like a chore to update them. VineHealth has a simple and intuitive interface that enables me to log daily symptoms in a few ‘clicks’. I can then show this daily record to my palliative care consultant who can adjust my medication as required based on this information. It’s also very easy to setup what prescribed medication I’m on, and the app reminds me when I need to take it. Sometimes I’m on 10+ pills a day, and it’s reminded me when I’ve forgotten a few times! There are also useful articles to browse on many aspects of living with cancer. I highly recommend using this app if you’re living with cancer.
