Printable Migraine Tracker and Headache Diary
A migraine diary shows you what happens before, during and after each attack: when it started, how bad it got, what you took and what might have set it off. A few weeks of notes can reveal patterns that are hard to remember on the spot, and they give your doctor clear information to work with. LK Books migraine trackers come as a paperback planner you write in and as a fillable PDF you can type into on your phone, tablet or computer.
Paperback: Migraine Tracker & Daily Planner
A 6-month headache diary with a page for each day to track pain, triggers, medication, food, water, sleep and stress. It is sold as a paperback on Amazon and as a lay-flat, coil-bound edition on Lulu that stays open on the table while you write.
Fillable PDF: Migraine Tracker (3 months)
Type on the lines, tick the boxes and tap the numbers, no printer needed. The 118-page PDF includes 3 months of undated daily pages, a 30-second Quick Check for bad days, Month at a Glance and Monthly Review pages to bring to appointments, a migraine profile, a medication list, trigger experiments and appointment notes. A tap-to-jump Contents page gets you to any day fast. You get US Letter and A4 versions, and it works in the free Adobe Acrobat Reader app, Apple Preview, Chrome and Edge. You can also print any page.
How to get the most from a migraine diary
Fill it in at the same time each day, even on good days. Headache-free days matter for spotting patterns.
On a bad day, just do the Quick Check and add details later when you feel up to it.
Write down every medicine you take for a headache, including over-the-counter pain relievers, with the time you took it.
After a month, look back over your pages and note anything that seems to come before an attack.
Bring your diary to your next appointment so your doctor sees the full picture.
