I need to get more organized with my symptoms, medications, and anything medical related to my fibromyalgia. Do you use a medical journal or planner? Not just a blank journal that you write in, but one that is pre-printed with what you should write down. I found one on Amazon by CleverFox but it's a bit expensive right now and I wanted to see if there are any other alternatives.

Members shared practical tools for organizing fibromyalgia symptoms and medications, with several recommending the MyTherapy app as a free alternative to pre-printed journals, highlighting features like medication reminders, symptom tracking, and the ability to share notes with medical teams. Many community members described keeping daily handwritten journals or diaries to track symptom patterns, stress triggers, and medication trials, noting that consistent documentation has helped them identify what worsens their condition and communicate more effectively with doctors. A recurring theme was the challenge of remembering to document regularly, balanced by the value of finding a system that works for each person, whether digital apps, pre-printed planners, or simple handwritten notes.

Thank you! I have been meaning to remind myself to do this, but I always forget. There is an app called MyTherapy and it helps you remember to take your medicine or to put your symptoms. You can even share your Notes to your family members or your medical team.
