Windows software and Android app for Bladder cancer management

People with bladder cancer should keep health records to actively participate in their treatment journey and ensure comprehensive care. Maintaining a health journal allows individuals with bladder cancer to track symptoms such as blood in the urine, urinary urgency, pelvic pain, and changes in urinary patterns, which can provide insights into the progression of the disease. Recording potential triggers, such as exposure to specific chemicals or irritants, can help identify factors that worsen their symptoms or potentially contribute to cancer development.

Additionally, tracking lab test results, such as urine cytology and imaging scans, can provide valuable information on cancer progression and treatment effectiveness. Monitoring medications, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or targeted therapies, can ensure adherence to the prescribed treatment plan. Regularly documenting doctor visits, procedures, and their outcomes can also help individuals track their response to treatment and discuss any concerns or side effects with their healthcare team.

Sample health journal entries that can be entered into Goopatient*:
Date: July 28, 2023
To minimize potential #irritants, I will use gloves and take necessary precautions while handling cleaning chemicals. I will also note any changes in urinary patterns and report them during my upcoming oncologist visit.
Today, I noticed #blood_in urine during morning voiding, along with mild pelvic discomfort. I also experienced increased urinary urgency throughout the day.
It is possible that a recent exposure to certain #cleaning_chemicals might have contributed to my symptoms, as I felt a slight irritation in my pelvic area after handling them.
I took my prescribed pain medication #Acetaminophen 325mg to manage pelvic discomfort.
I monitored my #fluid_intake 2l and output today to keep track of changes in urinary patterns.
I have a follow-up appointment with my oncologist #Dr.Brown next week to discuss my symptoms and the effectiveness of ongoing #chemotherapy.
