A Personal Record of Vital Health & Medical Information

You Are the Star of Your Own Life. Take Care of Yourself!

Can you answer these questions right now?
- When was your last mammogram?
- How long have you been on birth control pills—or estrogen?
- What is your blood type? The phone number of your nearest hospital?
- Which diets, vitamins, and herbs have worked for you?

Does your family know...
- Who your physicians are, and how to contact them in case of an emergency?
- What health issues are part of your—or your family’s—history?

This first resource of its kind, A Woman’s Health Journal is an invaluable tool for scheduling doctor’s visits, monitoring current medical conditions, storing vital records, and creating a medical history of general health over time. This practical, interactive, and motivational guide will:
- Keep all physician, hospital, and other records, along with phone numbers, organized for easy access within the journal.
- Allow you to survey your health status at any point and see at a glance when a medical problem began or recurred.
- Help you plan for routine, recommended checkups and immunizations, reminding you when you’re due for an appointment.
- Provide an overview of medications that you have taken or are currently taking.
- Inform you when bills need to be paid or forwarded to an insurance company.

Give yourself, your mother, your daughter, or friends the gift of a lifetime: good health!

2.0 out of 5 stars don't let the "journal" fool you, August 16, 2009

This review is from: A Woman's Health Journal: A Personal Record of Vital Health and Medical Information (Hardcover)
This is a skinny book, about half an inch thick, with pages for you to record if relatives have had certain health conditions. There's also two pages for you to record diets, and a few pages for you to record other things. I was looking for a journal to write notes in for my doctor's visits - more than just two pages. I found this book to be less of a journal and more of a "what's my health history" book.
