Just starting on a new adventure

I got my Charge 6 Yesterday which was brilliant as I only ordered it the day before and it is not due for release until Friday. I got the Charge 6 to monitor my heart rhythm after a cardiac ablation to fix my afib. The ECG is a bit finicky but I am sure I will get better at it. I have read, the inconclusive readings maybe a result of excessive wrist hair under the device. I have gotten some good ECG reading which I am saving to my Google Drive for my GP to review.

Cheers

@Stationary_R   Yes, excessive hair can give you inconclusive results.  ECG app user manual  Try wearing your Charge 6 with the sensor on the underside of your wrist for ECG measurements.  I tried it with my Sense 2 and got a reading.  It can feel a little awkward and you might not be able to do this if you have limited flexibility.
