I decided to write a program to keep track of my dialysis records, but then I realized that it might be useful for others as well.

I would like some feed back on what information your clinics require everyone to keep for their monthly records. Please note the type of dialysis you do.

Feature ideas are welcomed. I intend to have an email option so the data can be emailed to the clinic in a excel friendly format.

The main goal of this project is to give me experience programing. Starting with the design phase, programming, testing, and final release of the program. So right now it's just an idea on paper.

Thank you, I have never had to add medications to mine so I never thought of that. I think I will try to enable user created categories.

Update for anyone interested:

So I have very alpha version in progress. It will work on Android phones. I am testing it on a Droid X.

 :cheer: Figured out how to save a test file to the phones memory in the csv format. It can be accessed from a computer for now and eventually by email.
 :cheer: Figured out how to add items to the menu button on the phone. I will put the buttons for email, settings, help, and about there.
 :cheer: Figured out how to create a settings window. I have three test settings, that I'm currently working on saving to a preference file.
 :cheer: figured out how to have the settings window automatically open first on initial install.
It's not a lot but I have very little programing knowledge.

The next few things I will be working on.
 :cookie; Save settings from the settings window
 :cookie; Design data entry screen and enable it to display only the items the user picked in the settings screen.
 :cookie; figure out how to take the data entered and save it to the csv file with all the correct formatting needed to display in excel.


If anyone is interested I will continue to post updates otherwise I will probably just post something when its done. Eventually, I plan to make it available on google play for free.
