Thank you for sharing your experience. Do you have a good medical team that helps you manage these two conditions? All the best, Kathy (Team member)
Have you ever purchased a piece of tech for ONE feature or app and prayed you never use it? And you find, after a time, it’s the most used part of that tech? That would be the ECG on my Apple Watch.
When Apple announced the ECG, I had already used a different ECG device, but it got too much “clutter.’ I’d been treated for PSVT ten years before, and I’d had an episode or two since, but my doc wanted to see “a strip” to document it. So a new watch. In the past 16 months, I’ve had PSVTs running from 120s to 190s coming out of a sound sleep. I could just tap the face of the watch, put my finger on the “stem,” and watch the ECG a recording on the watch face. Milliseconds after it transferred to my iPhone, I could document it for my doctors and send it to them in real time.
MariI have high cholesterol, hypertension runs in my family and my older brother just died from a massive heart attack.
I’m so very sorry for the loss of your brother. I lost my little sister almost eight years ago. I understand the pain your family is feeling. Please take care of yourself — be gentle.
Gentle hugs,
MLSMy sympathy for the loss of your sister, as well. Warmly, Kathy (Team member)
