We have a lot of health records in the family, often just for monitoring health as we grow older. Is there a good system that allow storing and organising this info. Maybe also allowing notes, reminders?

    You could build your own spreadsheet using LibreOffice Spreadsheets.

    I’ve been meaning to do it because my diet doesn’t change much, and it would just be easier to track it myself.

    Nextcloud Health?

    Edit: Appears not not do the job after a dig. Maybe Gadgetbridge (if you’re pulling in fitness trackers)>Influx?

        Yeah, same. Or a demo instance. But if you install and test, you can take some screenshots and contribute to the repo 😉

        (Well, so could I… but… some other time)

      Looks very interesting. But as others noted, still too young, only two releases in 3 months and 1 person. Certainly to keep an eye out. The MIT licence worries me too. I always add the licence in the criteria ;-)

    I use Track & Graph from F-Droid for a similar purpose. I noticed pretty quickly that the data I want to track just isn’t generic enough to find a tailored app for it. So I setup several reminders through the app to enter the various measurements at set points in time each day and get a nice graph to dislay it.

    I too am interested in an automated system taking data from things like smart rings/watches, ideally with home assistant integration. Do you mean like basic note taking? something like Joplin could be used for that. I use it extensively. It has a to do checkbox function, which you could use as a reminder, though it doesn’t pop up. You’d have to look at it. I think for reminders etc. you’d perhaps be looking at calendar software, perhaps next cloud, which also includes notes.

    Paper notebook for each person, really the simplest, unless you have continuous monitoring or something uploading data automatically. Otherwise, for stuff like weight and BP, the actual measurements are the main hassle and computers won’t save you any time compared to that.

    Added: for pills, timercap.com bottle caps are brilliant. They have an LCD display saying how it has been since the cap was last taken off the bottle. It eliminates the problem of forgetting whether you have already taken your pill.

    Otherwise, generally, as always: https://biggaybunny.tumblr.com/post/166787080920/tech-enthusiasts-everything-in-my-house-is-wired

    A friend of mine is building something like that. You scan all the documents and you can set reminders, it does summaries and proposes actions and a buck of other really neat stuff It’s ai. I think it’s a good use case. But the ai means it has to call a server with the information, so I can’t get past that.

      That just means they need to ship the model and a way to run it locally. I’d love that, and wouldn’t give a shit if it took a long time to run on my hardware for something like that

        Yeah, that’s true I guess. I’m using ai from protona lot for my complicated medical conditions and it’s helpful, still would be better to have it local. Especially if it had good features.
