RA Monitor

I just got this app. I wish there was a front view of the body so I can log in places not listed in the same way as everything else and have it tracked accordingly. Right now I’m making notes about my pelvic joints because the pelvis is different from the hip. Perhaps in the next update? I’m using this in preparation for an appointment with an RA doctor. That way I have consistent records to enable me to answer questions more accurately.

I started using this app approximately 3 weeks ago to keep track of symptoms and medications from my recent diagnosis. It was great. An easy way for me to check boxes and ascertain certain symptoms. Today I tried to add my information and update yesterday with a medication and the app force closed. When I reopened it, the loading symbol persisted, then I tried again. Force close. I have tried this and other workarounds several times today. My info is gone. Reports are blank. Calendar no longer has any notes, colored corner tabs I am beyond frustrated. I will keep the app in the hopes that the information will resurface, but I obviously cannot trust it to hold such important health information that tracks this disease. Back to good old fashioned pen and paper. At least it’s not going to erase itself.

I’ve only used this app for one week. However, I like it so far! It is relatively easy to figure out, and there’s an option for asking questions about something you don’t understand or need help with. What I like most is the human body with the main nerves as points you can touch and a screen appears with boxes to check your symptoms each day or so. You can also enter your physician’s name and get linked in so they can correspond with you. It takes time for them to answer the app’s invitation. So far so good with the rest! 😊
