There's an indiegogo up for a project by patients for patients called Flaredown, tracking symptoms + treatments and relationships between the two; also s'posed to spit out a summary that is easy to show medical professionals, as well as (as an opt-in) aggregating data for medical researchers.
I think this is pretty cool. I've got in touch with them with a few questions and they've been answered to my satisfaction (to first approximation - in that the answers demonstrate that the creators are thinking about all of this).
Donating $15 gets you early access to the beta (the app will be free); they're also looking for patient advocates for some conditions to help with designing the tracking questionnaire. I'm fascinated to see how this turns out!
