Many actually ask their patients to map and track their pain. I am lead to believe that the patient's perception of and ability to articulate his/her pain is of very real use to the physicians treating the pain or the pain's cause. -David Zagreus-

What doctor wants another drug seeker providing pseudovalidated measures of pain, an experience that is impossible to verify or objectify? Sure, the patient may like it, but what use is it in the grand scheme? How about ‘useless’?

It is not social networking as we know it at Facebook, MySpace, etc. but we do provide a platform for pain/disease-specific interaction with patients by doctors/caregivers and through automated means, to track a patient’s condition and respond pro-actively. Is that 3.0? That said, it is our plan to provide more community channels to our users who are anxious to tell their stories and be heard.

Great post, I agree that this type of consumer health/medical tool needs a snappy name. Unfortunately I'm not great at coming up with such. I will be thinking about it, though. Hi David,
