Mini Heart Monitor.

They've come a long way with the mini heart monitors compared to those big ones from the old days.
Mine came by UPS yesterday evening and it has two small monitors along with a smartphone. Says to charge one monitor while you're wearing the other one. The monitors are waterproof and it says you can bathe with them on and go swimming with them.
I'm supposed to wear it for 30 days. Maybe they can find out why I'm still so lightheaded even after having three stents put in my main artery in my heart.
It's easy to operate I just stuck it on my chest, pushed one button and it automatically hooked up to the smartphone and started monitoring and updating every few minutes. You need to keep the smartphone within 10 feet of the monitor but if you don't it'll continue to monitor and update the smartphone the next time you get within range.
I figured it was going to cost quite a bit but my insurance paid everything except for a $40 copay.

Hope that works for you, it looks like a good one.
Good deal ! I wore one for a week last year. Not waterproof & the tape kept failing. You're medical services are top rate.
Hope it all works out for you.
Best wishes
When I had one it was called a Holter monitor. It was a harness that I wore that had wires running to various sensors on my chest. I took it back at the end of the week, they downloaded the results and still couldn't find the problem.
