Tracking VNS Settings & Magnet Swipes in Epilepsy Diary
Tue, 04/05/2011 - 17:58To whomever maintains & Designs the Epilepsy Diary...
For those of us who have a VNS it would be really nice if there was a way to track our VNS settings and the occasions we have to use our magnets. At present, when I log my use of my VNS magnet down on My Epilepsy Diary it is recorded as a seizure by itself, but it should not be tallied this way... It should accompany the seizure I use it to try to stop.
Would it be possible to:
1. add a place where we could monitor both our VNS settings and magnet settings?
2. and a place to mark if the VNS magnet was used and/or if it stopped the seizure.
Thank you for your help, VNS User
