Thank you windyshores, I've never heard of a Kardia device and will look into it. My previous episodes have always involved the intense jaw pain, so the cardiologist knows about them and doesn't seem concerned. I appreciate the information!

The Kardia documents the EKG so you share it with your doctor. It is credit card size; you put two fingers on each side after linking to your phone via Bluetooth and the EKG and diagnosis show up on the phone screen. You can send it or show it to MD. I also keep a blood pressure cuff handy in the closet.

My electrophysiologist was concerned about left arm or jaw pain and narrowing of arteries (ischemia) and ordered a stress test. Glad your doc is not concerned.
