Why not consider having a loop recorder implanted? It is the size of a paper clip and a simple outpatient procedure. It records every heartbeat via an App on your phone and sends it to your doctor’s staff for review. You would be freed from the ongoing task of perfect record keeping and communication.

Thanks for this.
As follow up to my original post, it was decided to skip the Cardioversion and proceed with a “touch up “ ablation to address the tachycardia.
That was performed about 18 months ago and, so far, I have remained in rhythm. And my heart rate is now averaging 65 - 70 bpm.
