My Journey Symptom Tracker & APP

Since we launched the My Journey online tool in 2018, we’ve heard from many members who
have told us that a symptom tracker, as well as the ability to download the
resource as an app, would add real value to My Journey.  We’re delighted
to announce that we’ve responded to your feedback, and have introduced to My
Journey both an in-built symptom tracker and downloadable
app.

    @Giovanna_BCNA wishing you all the best for your next career move. Thank you for all you have done.   I was so grateful to chat with you in December when admitted to hospital when things went a little pear shaped for me at the time.

    @jennyss I’ve always wondered why it’s still there 😆. I even thought only I can see it at one stage, cos I joined the forum exactly the day after it was posted. Looking at it again now, it brings back bittersweet memories, and actually has some good articles and motivational quotes 😁😊
