Review: "An app that acts as a pain diary. I've found it to be incredibly useful in tracking possible cycles, and in remembering important days of pain (and possible causes). I'm finding it to be an invaluable resource. You can rate your pain, do colour-coded mapping on a human form to mark out where your pain is, and its severity, and detail specific things going on. They've also included a way now to send that information to your physician(s), if you so choose. When you've completed entries, it will chart them, so you are able to detect, for example, if a new medication is helping or not, or if a stressful event caused more damage than you would hope."

Review: "A new app aimed at helping people give their doctors a more detailed picture of their ‘pain story’. It enables people to keep a record of their pain through drawings and inputting information, capturing the intensity of the pain, when it usually happens, and where. This information can be passed to the doctor at the next appointment, and provide them with a clearer picture of the pain their patient is suffering from. Further, the makers hope that its use will lead to new insights in the pain field. An algorithm analyses the pain stories of different users around the world, to identify ‘clusters’ of similar patients, which could allow conclusions to be drawn about the most probable diagnosis and best treatment."

Review: “CatchMyPain is a great app. I can track my pain by adding points on my body map that are colour coded, and can add mood and stress, and I can add comments. It saves all data, has no adverts, and I can email the diary to my GP. There is an option to upgrade the app for more features [Pro version].”
