Is Sharp Pain With Small Flutter In Chest Not Causing Heart Monitor To Beap Serious?
I am wearing an automatic event monitor. It beeps ocassionally. However sometimes I feel a sharp pain and nothing happens. I can record, but when I do the memory gets filled and I have to call it in. Should I be concerned if I feel a sharp pain or a small flutter and no beep automatically goes off? Should I hit the record button then or not?
Thank you!
Thank you!

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, you should definitely press record button whenever you feel chest pain or fluttering sensations.
This might be onset of arrhythmia (rhythm disturbances in heart).
So don't take this lightly. Discuss this with your cardiologist.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
