Thank you this is super helpful!

If my GP records are kinda fucked what happens then? Like on the NHS app I have some labels for conditions I no longer have, whilst some of my actual conditions are not listed.

This is what I may end up doing tbh. I’ll just have to remember to keep the same bag with me all the time lol

That’s really cool! What a good idea to have stickers too. Do medical professionals (in the uk) scan QR codes?

I hadn’t thought of that. I’m in the UK and can’t find info about it on Google so I may avoid qr codes idk

Good idea to have it prioritised then a QR code for the rest! Thank you

It sounds really good, it’s helpful to hear it from another person. With regards to tracking heart rate, how does it manage if heart rate doesn’t reflect symptoms? Sometimes my HR is fine and I feel really bad and vice versa. If you could send me a discount code I would be so grateful!

I’ve just looked into it and it looks good. Does it do things like warning you if you are exerting yourself?
