### Remember:

- Document while it's happening - memory fades quickly during illness
- If necessary, share with providers - Medical history is the most powerful diagnostic tool in clinical medicine, enabling accurate diagnosis in 75-85% of cases across studies spanning several decades. While physical examinations (8-12% of cases) and diagnostic tests (9-13% of cases) provide valuable confirmation and additional insights, the patient's history alone typically contains the key information needed to reach the correct diagnosis.
- Create follow-ups to track how conditions progress or resolve
- Organize by condition name - all related notes will be grouped together
