FOOD DIARY
I have found that people can create their own food diaries better than filling in pre made forms. I do have one that can be emailed to you or photocopied if you want it. Food can link with mood, symptoms so the suggested categories below allow for this diary to be used for all sorts of causal factors. Please use the numbers from 0 (as good as it can be) to 6 (as bad as it can be).

MOOD, SLEEP, SYMPTOM, MEDICATION DIARIES
Its an idea to include how you feel (mood), how you slept (hours &or quality) and a record of the symptoms or problems you are having. You can also use the above method for recording how herbal medicines and other medications you are taking make you feel.You can use this 0-6 scale for lots of things.
It is really helpful for you, your herbalist and for doctors to record how you are doing. It also shows that you are serious and with the numbers you can quantify your symptoms. mood over time. The method of data collection using these 0-6 numbers is called MYMOP.
You can google "MYMOP" for more information but MYMOP stands for: MEASURE YOURSELF MEDICAL OUTCOME PROFILE
