My Health Story is Now Live
Hello from the rebranded PainTrain My Health Summary – now known as, My Health Story (MHS). I couldn't be more thrilled to be writing this post after a very big few months of rebranding and redevelopment. But it's not over yet with the MHS App still a couple of weeks away. Like most magnificent leaps and bounds, the transition from PainTrain My Health Summary (PainTrain MHS) to MHS found the team stumbling on some administrative complexities... and, we do expect a couple more bumps – but we are mostly there! So what do you need to do?

Rebrand Announcement: My Health Story
The PainTrain My Health Summary team is thrilled to announce they will be rebranding to My Health Story. Keep reading because there are more announcements about the new website as well as a subscription offer of a lifetime... The consumer survey distributed to PainTrain MHS Advisory members, subscribers, and followers formed a clear decision to rename the health summarising resource to My Health Story. At close second was My Health History. In addition, the survey results indicated the much-needed requirement for an App version of the resource and more functionality for Affiliates and subscribers seeking more straightforward ways to access and include health information from their GPs. The development work has begun behind the scenes, and a new website is forming – we'll keep you up to date! BUT we also need a little support if we're going to make it to the blaring request for a My Health Story App. We've got an offer of a lifetime. Keep reading! (Can't wait to hear our offer of a lifetime? Bursting to support us? Then hit it!)
