@mjohns For what it’s worth, I’ve found the KardiaMobile to be super helpful in detecting paroxysmal afib especially during the day as the Apple Watch or Fitbit inspire 3 will only recognize the arrhythmia if it persists for 10 min while you are still. So during the day, it was often missed- only registered when I was asleep. Since I’m pretty symptomatic the Kardia picks up short runs best for me during the day. Good luck!

@babheart thank you. Blessings with your health journey.

@babheart The Fitbit Sense 2 and some other wrist worn devices will let you take a manual ECG and will identify when you're not in sinus rhythm. They're not as versitile or detailed as the Kardia, but it's one less thing to carry around. Fitbit worked for me. My episodes were never cooperative enough to show up in-office, at the ER or while wearing a Zio Patch.
