Symptom tracker14 symptoms

The 14-symptom GLP-1 tracker your doctor will actually read.

Which symptoms are worth recording on a GLP-1, what each one usually means, and what to change about your food when it turns up.

Download on theApp Store

The tracking happens in Foodose for iPhone, which starts with a free trial. Want your numbers first, with nothing to install? Get them on the web.

When you turn up to a six-month review with your prescriber, two minutes is not enough to describe what really happened. You remember the worst week. You forget the steady drumbeat of moderate nausea on Tuesdays. You forget that the mood changes started after the titration to the next dose. The doctor asks how you're doing. You say fine.

What this site does with symptoms is narrower and more immediate: it changes the plan. Tell the calculator you are constipated and the fibre target rises. Tell it you have been vomiting or have diarrhoea and it suspends the deficit outright and raises your fluid instead, because a week you cannot keep food down is not a week to be running one. Nausea and heartburn change the portioning and which foods it draws from.

The logging is the Foodose app: the data is yours, and it exports as a PDF for your next appointment. The conversation with your prescriber becomes a comparison, not a guess.

In the Foodose app

Built around how this medication actually works.

In the app

Record when, not just whether

From the home screen plus button. Symptom + severity. Done in under five seconds.

In the app

By day after the shot

Your symptoms laid out by day of your dose week, so the day-two nausea and the day-five appetite show up as a pattern.

In the app

Pre-appointment export

A PDF designed for a clinician to skim: weight, doses, symptoms and mood. Bring data, not memory.

In the app

Your own words, kept

A note with any check-in, in your words. It sits with the day, and the app can bring it back on the same day of a later dose week.
