Default Pain and Med tracking

I am looking for something that may not exist..... I am looking for a Chart that will help me to record how I feel (symptoms) on a daily basis so that I can show this to my doc. Does anyone know of such a chart? I would also like to find a chart that will help me to list all of my medications and the side effects of each throughout the month.
Any, and I mean any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Thank you.
I think this is a very good idea. Any journal keeping can only help you to explain your symptoms/results to your doctor. It can also help you find trends and target improvements or side effects.

Default Found a couple nice charts

I have been searching for a chart to track my symptoms and meds on a daily basis. I have found a couple charts that may be of great use to some of you. These are nice charts.

I truly do hope these will help those of you, like me, who need them. I still have not found my "Perfect" chart and am still looking.

I'd suggest you get an A4 diary, say, with 3-4 days each page, with times shown. Called a Week to View.
This is what I use.
The times are handy reference points for medication taken, and there is plenty of room for comments.
There are also yearly charts that could come in handy.
I tried PC based recording, but the last thing you want to do when ill is work on a computer, so the details get omitted.
A diary is very simple and you can keep it close by.
I doubt that you would find anything else, without it being too complex.
Keep it simple and you will use it.
