Living with fibromyalgia

A fibromyalgia symptom tracker for the days that are hard to explain

A chronic illness tracker and gentle companion that already knows what fibromyalgia can involve — so you do not have to explain it from scratch.

What fibromyalgia can involve

Fibromyalgia is commonly described as a long-term condition involving widespread pain, deep fatigue, sleep that does not refresh you, and the concentration difficulties many people call fibro fog. Symptoms tend to rise and fall, and can flare after activity, stress or a bad night.

Because there is no single test for it, and because nothing shows on the outside, many people spend years being asked to prove something they live with every day. A record kept in your own words, day by day, is one of the few things that speaks for you in the room.

Fibromyalgia can be a difficult condition to diagnose, partly because there is no specific test for it.

How a day can feel

If your days sound anything like this, taluvu was made with you in mind.

  • “Everything hurts and I cannot point to one place.”
  • “I sleep through the night and wake up as though I had not.”
  • “Being hugged can hurt, and I never say so.”
  • “My brain will not find words when I need them.”
  • “One ordinary thing can cost me the rest of the week.”

These are the kinds of things taluvu invites you to say in your own words — never a checklist of what anyone “should” have.

What taluvu helps you keep track of

Choose Fibromyalgia and it starts you with a palette, not a blank form.

These are things people living with fibromyalgia often want to keep an eye on. Remove any you do not need, add your own, and check in with a few taps on the days you have very little to give.

  • Widespread pain
  • Fatigue
  • Brain fog (fibro fog)
  • Unrefreshing sleep
  • Stiffness
  • Tender points

  • A journal in your own words, not a score
