"Loved the app and the new update makes tracking the migraines even better. Being able to note the possible triggers and then add my own notes for each headache is a big plus. Definitely worth the $$"

What medications are you trying?
Are your headache preventatives working?
Are there any triggers you can identify?

When youre enduring a headache, keeping track of which medications you have taken, foods that might have triggered an attack or charting the time you are disabled is more than you feel up to. Yet, giving your physician the correct data about your headaches is essential to getting the best headache care.

Luckily, theres help for you here. iHeadache has everything you need to track your headache symptoms, disability, triggers and medications in a pain-free way. With iHeadache, your iPhone or iPod Touch becomes a headache diary thats going to help you and your doctor diagnose and treat your pain.

iHeadache was developed by neurologist, researcher and headache specialist, Dr. Brian D. Loftus. Who better than a specialist to create the most accurate and important headache tracking tool available?

One of the unique features of iHeadache is that it can tell you the type of headache youre having by capturing and analyzing real time information. The app uses the International Headache Society Criteria (IHS Criteria) to classify your headache as a migraine, probable migraine, tension headache or unclassified headache. This application is like having a doctor in your device.

What kind of information does iHeadache track, record and analyze?

Number of headaches
Headache triggers

The app is flexible, allowing you to create custom triggers and medications, as well as enter notes about each headache. iHeadache is the perfect tool for gathering everything you need to know in one convenient place. You can even generate reports to share with your physician. Break down the information into 7, 28 or 30 days, or by specific months to show:

The types of headaches you have

Medications and dosages
The length of time you are completely and partially disabled
Your MIDAS (Migraine Disability Assessment Scale) score
The sum of your headache triggers

As a long time migraine sufferer, my neurologist recommended this app to me so that we could get an idea of how often I was actually getting migraines. I found this app to be extremely easy and user friendly. The new updated version which gives more room for writing notes is great!

Pretty darn good! (4 stars)
I have had chronic migraines for years, so my hard copy migraine diary is HUGE. I like this app because it means I'll always have my diary on me and can start tracking the migraine when it starts, as opposed to maybe a few hours later when the details of the start of the migraine are fuzzy.
I also like how it computes my Midas score and keeps track of my disability time. Very helpful for people who have chronic migraines.
