How to share and export your seizure log: PDF, CSV, email or link

Keeping a seizure log is only half the job — the value comes when you can hand it to the people who need it: your GP, neurologist, a benefits assessor, or a solicitor. A good tracker makes that effortless. Here's how exporting and sharing your seizure record works with Seizure Tracker, and which format to use for which purpose.

The export options

From your History tab, you can turn your seizure log into a shareable record in a few ways:

• PDF report — a clean, formatted document with a summary, your full seizure log, and an activity breakdown. This is the one most people want for medical or benefits use.
• CSV file — every logged seizure as spreadsheet data (date, time, duration, count, activities, notes), ready for your own analysis or for a neurologist who wants the raw numbers.
• Print — send the report straight to a printer for a paper copy to take to an appointment.
• Email — send the report directly to yourself, your GP, or anyone who needs it.
• Secure link — share a link to your report rather than an attachment.

Which format for which purpose

• GP or neurologist appointment — a PDF report is ideal: it's readable at a glance in a short appointment and includes frequency, duration and context.
• PIP or benefits claim — a printed or emailed PDF showing consistent, timestamped logs is strong supporting evidence. The activity breakdown maps to the daily-living tasks PIP assesses.
• Detailed clinical review — a CSV lets a neurologist sort and analyse the raw data, useful when adjusting medication.
• Family or a carer — a secure link or emailed report keeps the people supporting you informed.
• A solicitor or tribunal — a dated PDF is a professional, contemporaneous record you can submit as part of a case.

Why a timestamped export beats a handwritten summary

A report generated from logged, timestamped entries carries more weight than a summary written from memory. Each seizure has a precise date and time recorded at the moment it was logged, so the document reads as evidence rather than recollection — which matters for DVLA reviews, PIP claims, and tribunals alike.

Sharing safely

Your seizure data is personal health information, so it's worth sharing it deliberately: send reports only to people you trust, and use email or the secure link rather than posting data anywhere public. Your data itself is stored on UK-based servers under UK GDPR, and it's never sold or shared with third parties — you decide who sees your report.
