I have cardiomyopathy and have been able to exercise ok enough, but I like to keep an eye on my HR with a monitor. As my HR gets up to a higher level, I get more cuplet and triple beats according to hospital tests, so I tend to back off at that point.
So my question is, do strap or optical heart monitors do much of a job measuring a misfiring heart or are the numbers just garbage? My new Garmin keeps automatically setting my max much too high and I'm wondering if the root cause it the device picking up these fluttering beats.
Hopefully I explained that on, I'm not a medical expert.
