Flare severity scoring
Daily 1-5 scoring across pain, blood, urgency, fatigue. Auto-flagged when 3+ days exceed threshold.
- Multi-symptom score
- Threshold alerts
- Flare timeline
For IBD - Crohn's & Colitis
Track flares with care and clarity.
IBD is not IBS. A Gut Day respects that with serious flare tracking, medication adherence logs, and patterns that help you and your gastroenterologist catch issues before they escalate.
What an IBD journal needs that an IBS app doesn't
IBD requires medication adherence tracking (biologics, immunosuppressants, 5-ASA, steroids), flare severity grading, blood-in-stool flags, and the ability to share clean reports with your gastroenterologist between appointments. A Gut Day handles all of this. Food triggers matter too - especially for Crohn's strictures - but flare and treatment tracking is the priority.
How A Gut Day helps
Built for this exact problem
Medication adherence
Log doses for biologics (Humira, Remicade, Stelara, etc.), 5-ASA, steroids, immunosuppressants.
- Reminder schedule
- Missed-dose log
- Per-medication graph
Blood / mucus alerts
One-tap log for blood or mucus in stool. Insights flag clustering early.
Share with your GI
One-tap PDF export of last 30/60/90 days for appointments.
How it works for IBD
- 1
Set your medications
Add your biologic, immunosuppressant or 5-ASA with dose schedule.
- 2
Log daily symptoms in 30 seconds
Pain, blood, urgency, fatigue - 4 sliders.
- 3
Log meals when possible
Optional but useful for spotting flare triggers.
- 4
Export before appointments
Bring a clean PDF instead of trying to remember.
Why daily symptom scoring beats memory
Studies of IBD self-report consistently find that patients underestimate severity at routine appointments and overestimate during flares. A 90-day daily log corrects both biases - your gastroenterologist sees the actual pattern, not your mood today.
For Crohn's specifically, food-trigger tracking matters where strictures or fistulas are present - certain fibrous foods can cause obstruction symptoms. The app's photo-based fibre estimation helps avoid those without forced low-residue eating during remission.
Frequently asked questions
- Does this replace my gastroenterologist?
- Absolutely not. It makes your appointments more productive and helps catch flares earlier. Treatment decisions are between you and your specialist.
- Will it remind me to take my biologic?
- Yes. Set up the schedule once; the app reminds you on the day.
- Can I track Crohn's-specific things like obstructions?
- Yes - via custom symptoms. Food fibre estimation is also tracked for stricture management.
- Is the data secure enough for medical use?
- Data is encrypted, stored in the EU, and never sold. You own your data and can export or delete anytime.
