Identification as a patient of the Hartford HealthCare Headache Center
We created a special code to identify you – a Hartford HealthCare Headache Center patient – to allow us to send you unique messages (like daily and monthly reminders) and ease the sharing process of your diary with your provider as a photo via MyChart. Please follow this one-time process of applying our special code detailed in the slider below.
All our patients use the same code: hartford56c5
Congratulations! You are all set to begin using your Headache Diary!
1
Access the Headache Diary
Click the “Diary” tab at the bottom of the screen.
2
Using the Headache Diary daily
Once on the Diary page, you will see a monthly calendar and below it a big “Fill daily diary” button. Clicking the button will open a series of questions regarding your headache. Answer each question based on what happened to you that day. Once you select an answer, the “next” button will activate, and you can move to the next question.
Remember, in order to best understand your migraine attacks, it’s important to fill out the diary every day, even on days in which you do not have a headache.
Once you have filled out the daily diary you will see the entry on the screen. You can click it to see what you entered (and even edit if needed). You will also see that a small green circle appears on that day on the calendar.
Some questions may have more answers than you can see on your screen in a given moment.
1
Generating the output file
To create the summary of your daily diary entries, click on the share icon on the upper right hand corner of the screen. This will generate a jpeg image of the calendar with up to 3 months of calendar entries, one month per “page” (section of the jpeg file).

To do that, Nerivio must be allowed to access your photos.
