Each such condition at least partly arises from the gastrointestinal indication. Questionnaire questions are each associated with a corresponding condition and provide an affordance that allows the user to select between low and high values in accordance with user association with the condition. Responses are stored in a data store associated with the user. A user requested report comprising a graphical quality of life measure of the user is provided based upon temporal questionnaire answers. Questionnaire information is communicated to a remote device for medical practitioner evaluation and computation of a temporal overall quality of life score based on a plurality of component quality of life scores, each of which is associated with a condition in the plurality of conditions.
