Headache or Migraine diary – by phone?
It can be a pain to keep a headache diary. And yet, it is one of the most critical things that you need to do if you’re going to find solutions. What if, instead of searching for that paper or remembering until you got home (or got to a computer), you could just grab your cell phone and make a quick call?
Personally, I like paper, which is why I use the headache diary here. But I recently got an email from migraineur and web-smart guy Scott Clark, who suggested using the web transcription service known as Jott for keeping a headache diary.
Simply put, Jott takes your voice and turns it into text, allowing you to update agendas, email, and send text messages by phone. (Note: Jott is currently only available in Canada and the USA)
Ok, sure, so what do I do – call Jott whenever I have a migraine attack? Well, relax. Scott has written a whole article about using Jott for your headache diary. Lots of great tips – and a simple breakdown of how it works and how to make it work for you. Check out the article right here: Migraine Diary with Jott.
If you find the idea useful, leave a comment here and let me know. Maybe there’s something to all this computer stuff after all!
