Health is a software application designed for people with Diabetes
and/or Hypertension (High Blood Pressure due to heart disease). Health
software records and
graphs your Blood Glucose, Blood Pressure (Systolic, Diastolic, and
Pulse), Weight, Temperature, A1c Test, Cholesterol, Supplements,
Medications Schedule, Questions for the Doctor, Bowel Movement, Medical
Team, Meal Plan, and Pain values. The data can be viewed in a line or
bar graph. The software contains an array of statistics.
The latest addition to the software is the 'Leg Cramps' module. It
allows the user to track any leg cramps he may experience. Cramps
mostly occur while sleeping. The calf muscle knots up and burns like
the depths of hell. Quite common amongst diabetics. The user logs the
Date/Time of the cramp, which leg was affected by the cramp, the
intensity of the pain (0 to 50) involved, and any comments the user may
have concerning the leg cramp.
The 'Kidney, Liver, Thyroid, and Urine Test Results' module. This
module will record the results of blood test for evaluating your
kidneys, thyroid, and liver. The results of urine tests are also
recorded. There are 30 defined data columns to record the test results.
The user can change the name of the data columns as desired.
The 'My Doctor Visits' module. The intent is so the patient has a way
to rate and document the interaction with a medical professional at a
medical facility. It can also serve as a reminder of what problems or
concerns that did not get resolved at the last appointment. The
unresolved concerns may have to be addressed at the next appointment.
The 'My Feet' module. This is where the user can record the problems
that a diabetic is having with his feet. It is important for a diabetic
to take good care of his feet.
The 'Medical Team' module. The Medical Team and Appointment Schedule
module to the diabetes software package. This is where you can keep
track of the
contactinformation and characteristics of the medical professionals you
interact with. Think of it like a medically oriented address book. Also
added the Number of BG Tests per Day to the Overall Statistics window
of the BG module. Kinda handy to see your testing frequency over time.
The 'Meal Plan' module. You can record the components for all the
meals, snacks, and beverages you consume. The components of the meal
are the Calories, total weight of the meal, weight of carbohydrates,
total fat content, and protein. All weight related components are to be
in grams. This is very important to people on restricted diets.
The 'Pain' Form. You can record and graph all your aches and pains. The
pain level range is from 1 to 100. Create a diabetes database for each
type of
pain you experience. You can see it evolves over time. Keep in mind
that the pain module is very subjective in nature since each person
looks at pain differently. Keep records of any pain that may relate to
heart disease.
The 'Bowel Movement' Form. Many different factors like diet,
medications, stress, disease, environment, etc can have a dramatic
effect on a person's bowel movement. The effects cam be prolonged
constipation or very nasty diarrahea. The user simply logs the
date/time, and the Level of Difficulty. The software records and graphs
the elapsed time and level of difficulty. It has full printing to paper
capability.
The Cholesterol Form can record and graph your total cholesterol,
triglycerides, HDL, LDL, VLDL, and Chol/Hdlc. It has full printing to
paper capabilities. The maintaining of good cholesterol numbers is very
important to a diabetic to prevent complications due to cardiovascular
disease.
The 'Medications' Form can now record and track when you take
Supplements/OTC medications and Prescription medications. The Meds Form
consists of two grids. The upper grid is for Supplements/OTC Meds and
the lower grid is for Prescription meds. When you take a medication,
record the date/time in the appropriate grid. A good way to keep track
of your meds over time. It has full printing to paper capabilities.
The 'Temperature' Form is where you can record and graph your body
temperature. All sorts of things can cause your temperature to
increase, like - fever, allergies, flu, colds, etc. Like rising BG's,
rising temperature can be a indicator of things to come. It has full
printing and graphing capabilities.
The 'My Diary' Form represents a place where the User has a place to
write down or document their daily battles with diabetes. It can be
used for aches and pains, descriptions of hypos, occurance of
neuropathy, when you take your medications, etc. Think of it as your
teenage daughter's diary. It's function is whatever you decide. It has
full and partial printing capabilities. Learn about alternative views
related to key causes of diabetes.
The software contains a Form for dietary Supplements, Over The Counter
non prescription, and Prescription medications. The user enters all the
diabetes dietary supplements, OTC Meds, and Prescription Meds being
used. Prints
the data to paper, and gives the paper to the doctor/nurse/pharmacist
for evaluation. Supplements and OTC Meds sometimes are dangerous to use
and also interact with prescription medications. All sorts of nasty
things can happen when drugs unkowingly interact. Hopefully, the
medical team will properly evaluate what you are taking, and advise you
to dangerous or unwise supplements and or OTC Meds. Be careful with
supplements, especially when symptoms of heart disease are present. Be
aware about methods to stop or prevent a heart attack.
The software contains a 'Questions For Doctor' Form. A person with
diabetes often uses multiple medical professionals. Example: GP, Endo,
Podiatrist, Nurse, Dietician, etc. Each medical person looks at
diabetes within the context of their expertise. our relationship within
each professional is different, and the questions you have for each is
different. Since the next appointment for each medical person may be
six months away, questions you may have today may be forgotten at the
appointment. That is where the Questions Form enters the picture. Enter
the person's name, the appointment date, and your question. Do this for
each medical professional you interact with. As the respective
appointment date grow near, your questions will no doubt grow. Just
print the questions to paper and hand the paper to the appropriate
medical person. You can Edit or Delete the questions at any time. The
Questions Form keeps everything organized for you.
The software is Freeware. The software does not collect personal
information, contains no spyware, does not phone home, no Registration
process, and is not ad based. Use only on a MS Windows operating system.
