How to Track Headache Patterns Without Overtracking

Many headache journals fail because they ask for too much. Start with a short score and trigger context that you can keep on hard days.

What to track

Pain intensity, duration, and location
Known triggers: sleep, screens, stress, food, hydration
Abortive and preventive context (timing + perceived effect)

How to start (this takes seconds a day)

Rate headache intensity on a 0–10 scale when it starts and when it ends.
Write one trigger and one thing that helped (or did not help).
Review weekly before appointments to identify repeat windows.

Frequently asked

Can I track migraine with one score?

Yes. A consistent score plus short context is far more useful than perfect detail every day.

What if I miss days?

Do one-line entries when symptoms happen. The goal is actionable pattern visibility, not a perfect diary.
