A simple, beautiful way to track your chronic illness.

HOLY FUCK SPOONIES LOOK AT THIS
29 DAYS LEFT LETS FUND THIS!

Flaredown is a web site and mobile app that lets your track your chronic illness and figure out triggers so you can reduce your flares before they ever begin.

It’s a spoonie-centric approach to figuring out what works. You can track your illness, and bring your data into your doctor. You can talk with other spoonies who have your condition and see what works for them. You can talk about drugs and see if the side effects are worth the benefits of medication.

it’s banding together in spite of illnesses that seek to isolate us.

it’s bringing light to symptoms that are not understood by doctors.

literally amazing

if you are not chronically ill/disabled and can spare the cash PLEASE fund this there literally are no symptom trackers out there (that I have found) that cater to people with chronic illness other than maybe crohn’s and there especially aren’t ones designed to connect the chronically ill and that is so important there is so much that even a great doctor can’t understand and the more you can connect to people with similar symptoms the better. I’m specifically addressing this to healthy people because those of us who need this most rarely have money to spare between treatments that may or may not help, testing and retesting, often being unable to work, lawyers fees for trying to get disability, special dietary needs (esp if those needs are considered a fad diet and the price gets jacked up and yes I am looking at you gluten-free stuff), assistive technology, transportation due to inability to drive, the list goes on but I’m going to stop here.

this app is so important and it is desperately needed bc seriously have you ever tried setting up a custom spreadsheet for this stuff it is hard as fuck and there aren’t templates for it and spreadsheets are less than ideal no matter how you set them up
