Use a 90-day bowel journal during interrupted check-ins

Keep recent history available for review. A call or another task can interrupt a check-in before you know whether it was saved.

What makes this useful

Details become harder to remember as the interval between a visit and a review grows.

Reopen the app and check the saved record before starting the visit again. A consistent label such as “interrupted entry” helps connect the day you remember with the visit you saved.

A practical way to begin

  1. Open the 90-day view to see the available saved entries.
  2. Use search or custom dates to make that longer list manageable.
  3. Repeated occasions of interrupted check-ins can share a “interrupted entry” label. Combine that search with the dates of one occasion to avoid mixing unrelated visits from the available 90 days.

An example of useful context

“Morning visit; interrupted while adding the note.”

Is there already a saved visit with the date and details you intended?

Use your own wording and the details you remember. A short, recognizable note makes it easier to find the visit later.
