Embodiments of the invention provide a method and apparatus for a wireless
health monitoring system for interactively monitoring a disease or health
condition of a patient by connecting an internet-enabled wireless web
device ("WWD") to a health monitoring device which may be a medical
device or other health related device such as an exercise machine. The
WWD may be connected to the health monitoring device directly by a wired
connection to a generic input/output port of the WWD using an optional
adaptor if necessary. Alternatively, the WWD may be wirelessly connected
to the health monitoring device, such as via an infrared or radio
frequency connection, including using protocols such as Bluetooth or
802.11. The wireless connection may also employ an adaptor if necessary.
The user may also input data to the WWD manually, such as by a keypad,
keyboard, stylus, or optionally by voice command.
