Migraine Buddy 4+

I’m diagnosed with chronic migraines and idiopathic intracranial hypertension and was looking for a way to better catalogue my migraines and high pressure headaches so that I could understand my triggers and patterns, what works and what doesn’t, duration, the different types of headaches I get to see which affects me at what point, plus a plethora of other things such as humidity and environmental (I’ve realised this is a big factor) and tracking it physically was too difficult and seemed too big of a task. This app combines it all perfectly and effortlessly and is exactly what every migraine/headache sufferer needs. My neurologist at Oxford asked me to track them to be able to better understand them and tailor treatment plans and it has handy options to export PDF reports for doctors or consultants so that can see, plus it tracks MIDAS scores which is what consultants use to see how badly your migraines disable you. It has a few different report options, all of which are beneficial and will come in handy for you and your healthcare professionals.

I’d recommend this to anyone who suffers with migraines in any form, whether you have recently started suffering or you’re a long term sufferer like I am. It really is invaluable.

Thank you so much for sharing such great news. Your strong support and kind words are much appreciated by the team who work hard to create a tool that helps migraine sufferers better understand and treat their migraine attacks. Thank you again for your kind words. 💖Jenny

After having my first ever migraine aged 30, a week before my daughters birth in December 2000, I have suffered them ever since and had so many in a very short time period which I blamed on my hormones yet they continued after her birth and here I am, 19 years later still getting frequently whooped by them. After my daughters birth, I had another daughter and a son and was the victim of violence and coercive control in the marriage to their father and so it’s possible that stress was a contributory factor. However I am now with my childhood sweetheart and have been enjoying a lovely, peaceful life with him since 2011 and still have migraines.
Originally Zomig were the wonder drugs which helped but the doctor changed them to Almogran, I expect Almos are cheaper as my friend had her prescription changed too.
I’m determined to find a pattern/trigger to my migraines as they don’t appear to be when I’m having a fibromyalgia-flare up, or be period related although I do have 2 asymptomatic ovarian cysts.
So far from looking at my reports, the migraines tend to be scattered all over the place but I hope in time either I will see a pattern or that my keeping a record will help my GP.
Thanks for a fantastic app. It ticks all the boxes for what I need and there’s nothing extra I need.

Thank you so much for your support and for sharing your experience with us.
By recording all your migraines and symptoms regularly in the app, it will surely help your doctor better understand them.

I have the free version and it’s brilliant. I’ve got chronic migraines and this app helps me track my headaches and migraines easily, it helps to ID triggers and rate what reliefs work. It also keeps score of how often I take medication which is useful since I do get painkiller over-use headaches as well which is difficult to manage with chronic pain!
It’s helped me to begin identifying pro-crime symptoms which mean I have an attack on the way.
They respond to feedback quickly and helpfully and seem proactive in constantly developing the app for users.
I don’t know how beneficial it is to have the subscription, it’s a costly one and not something I can afford at the moment. That being said, I’m so grateful that the free version is so in depth. Is there a way we can contribute to keeping this going on a smaller financial scale?! I would absolutely donate what I could to ensure this keeps going for migraine sufferers!!

Thank you very much for your strong support. We used to have a store with items for sale. We had to close it for a while but are willing to make it available to users again in the future.
Stay tuned!! 💖Jenny
