Additional features for medication tracking

I’ve been using the app to track symptoms of my inflammatory rheumatic condition. I have not used the medication section at all because it’s too complicated/too many unnecessary steps in my case.

  • I take medication once a week, and a necessary supplement every remaining day of the week
  • I only take medication once a day
  • I take the same dose each time

This makes the medication section way too complicated for my needs. I’m in support groups for my condition and most people in those groups do not take medication daily/several times a day.

So my suggestions are the following:

  • Add an option where once can choose to simply log yes/no whether one has taken a specific med, without having to specify dose/amount and time of day every time (as this is always the same, at least for those of us whose doctors have figured out what works!)
  • Specify treatment frequency for medications so that once I’ve taken my meds on a Monday, they’re in the algorithm for the rest of the week

This would make the section a lot easier to use. I struggle with fatigue and the med section has simply been a Mammoth task to use, so I’ve removed it completely.
