Symptom & Trigger Tracker

Find out what sets your symptoms off, in about a minute a day.

The Symptom & Trigger Tracker is a ready-made Excel and Google Sheets workbook. You log how you feel each day, and it shows you the possible patterns. Walk into your next appointment with a clear, printable summary.

HOW IT WORKS

SET UP: Name your symptoms and triggers (presets included). 3 minutes, once.
LOG: One row a day. Add the date, 0-10 per symptom, and Y under each trigger. Sleep, stress, energy and medication are optional.
WATCH: Pick a month to see your severity calendar, flare days and top triggers.
DISCOVER: After 3-4 weeks, open Insights to see possible patterns.

WHAT’S INSIDE

Setup: up to 6 symptoms and 8 triggers, with your own rules (flare threshold, short sleep, high stress)
Daily Log: 1,000 rows, about 2.7 years of daily entries
Dashboard: month calendar, flare days, charts, top triggers
Insights: trigger finder, sleep and weekday patterns, and notes for your doctor
Check-in: an optional 1-minute check every 2 weeks (mood, calm, two short screening questions)
Doctor Visit: one printable page that fills itself
6 presets: Migraine, Gut/IBS, Allergy & skin, Fatigue & chronic pain, Anxiety & stress, Sleep & mood

HOW THE TRIGGER FINDER WORKS
For each trigger, it compares your worst symptom on days WITH the trigger against days WITHOUT it. It checks the same day and the next day. Each trigger gets a verdict (Possible pattern, Watch, No clear link, Possibly protective, or Need more data) and a confidence level that grows as you log more days.

GOOD TO KNOW

Works with Excel 2019 / 2021 / 365, Excel for the web, Google Sheets and LibreOffice
Your data stays in your own file. Nothing is sent anywhere.
Duplicate dates are blocked, and a forgotten day never looks like a good day
Formula cells are protected with no password
Set up on a computer. Daily logging also works on a phone, but the wide table is easier on a computer or tablet.
