How I Turned My Chronic Illness Struggle Into HealthOS - A System to Regain Control

The Story Behind HealthOS


In July 2025, I was diagnosed with Chronic Asthma, and suddenly my life was overwhelmed by medications, complicated instructions, frequent doctor visits, and a restricted diet. Some days, even walking was a struggle. I felt completely helpless and out of control.


This wasn’t new to me, I’ve always dealt with chronic health challenges and a deep sense of helplessness. Over the years, I heard things like, “It’s all in your head,” or “Just be positive,” but the pain and symptoms were very real. That disconnect became my breaking point.


I decided to take control. That’s how HealthOS was born, a tool I built to transform health chaos into clarity. It’s a complete health management system in Notion with 10 core modules and 28 sub-modules, designed to help people like me track symptoms, medications, appointments, costs, and discover personal health patterns. It brings order to the overwhelm so you can advocate for yourself with confidence.


If any of this resonates with you, I’d love to hear your stories. How do you currently manage your health? What tools or systems have helped, and where do you wish you had more support? Your insights could help improve HealthOS and, more importantly, remind us all we’re not alone in this journey.
