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 doesn't 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's 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's no specific test for it.
Fibromyalgia symptoms checklist to take to your GP
Tick what applies to you, note how often it happens, and take it to your appointment, so the conversation starts further along. It describes your experience. It does not say what is causing anything: ticking most of these does not mean you have Fibromyalgia, and ticking a few does not mean you do not. Only a clinician can work that out with you.
The list comes from the NHS and charity sources linked further down this page, and from what people living with fibromyalgia tell us they keep an eye on. It is a starting point, not a test.
How a day can feel
If your days sound anything like this, taluvu was made with you in mind.
“Everything hurts and I can't 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 won't 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.

Questions people ask
Fibromyalgia and taluvu, in plain answers.
Short, honest answers about what taluvu does and does not do for fibromyalgia. Nothing here is medical advice.
Is taluvu a fibromyalgia tracker app?
Yes. taluvu is an iPhone app for chronic and invisible illness, and fibromyalgia is one of the conditions built in. Choose it and taluvu starts you with a palette of the things people with fibromyalgia most often keep an eye on, then lets you add your own words rather than filling in a form.
What can I track for fibromyalgia?
Widespread pain, fatigue, fibro fog, unrefreshing sleep, stiffness, tender points, headaches and sensitivity to touch are all in the starting palette. You can remove any of them, add anything else that matters to you, and note how the day felt overall, your energy, your sleep and what helped.
Does taluvu make me rate my pain out of ten?
No. A check-in is a few taps and a line in your own words if you have one in you. taluvu describes your week in plain English before it shows a chart, never grades your health with a score, and never claims that one thing caused another.
Can it help me explain fibromyalgia at a GP or rheumatology appointment?
That's what the Doctor Summary is for. It turns your own check-ins and journal into something you can read out, print or hand over, including how many days went unrecorded. It isn't a diagnosis or a medical record; it's a clearer way to describe what you've been living with.
