1. A method for correlating biometric trends with a related temporal event, comprising the steps of:
- a. automatically sensing biometric data, wherein the biometric data is obtained from an implanted medical device and stored in at least one interactive database;
b. analyzing the biometric data against a reference data set to create a biometric data set;
c. correlating the biometric data set with a temporal event to create an output, wherein the temporal event is an environmental event that is capable of causing a health state change in a patient, and wherein the environmental event is selected from a group of events consisting of;
a change in temperature, a change in atmospheric pressure, a change in humidity, a change in stress, a change in patient medication, a change in patient diet, and a change in patient emotional state;
d. electronically transmitting the output to at least one communications device in communication with an interactive communications network;
e. transforming the output to a human-recognizable format; and
f. displaying the transformed output, wherein the transformed output comprises the biometric data set displayed with the corresponding temporal event.
