When to seek urgent help
M-1 does not evaluate your record for urgent or medical risk. This page provides general information about when people should seek urgent or prompt care — it's the same for everyone and isn't personalized to anything you've recorded.
Seek urgent or emergency care now if you have
- Chest pain or pressure
- Trouble breathing
- Fainting or a loss of consciousness
- Signs of stroke (sudden numbness, confusion, trouble speaking or seeing, severe headache)
- A severe allergic reaction
- Thoughts of harming yourself
If this is a medical emergency, call 911 (or your local emergency number) now — don't rely on this app.
Worth a prompt conversation with a clinician
This list is general and not exhaustive — trust your own judgment about what feels urgent to you, even if it isn't listed here.
- Bleeding that's new, heavy, prolonged, or different from what's typical for you
- A symptom that's severe, sudden, or rapidly worsening
- Any symptom that genuinely worries you, regardless of severity
How M-1 handles safety
M-1 stores what you choose to log — it doesn't interpret it. There's no automated risk score, no diagnosis, and nothing monitoring your record for emergencies behind the scenes. A logged entry can carry a general safety note, and Doctor Prep can mark an entry "Worth discussing" — both are based only on what you recorded, using general published guidance about that kind of entry, not an assessment of your specific situation. The absence of a note or flag doesn't mean everything is fine; it only means nothing you logged matched a published guidance trigger. Trust your own judgment, and use the list above if something feels urgent.
M-1 provides general health information, not medical advice. It does not diagnose, treat, or replace a healthcare provider.
