One needs Holter or event monitor, for further assessment and assistance. Holter records for days; Event monitor for weeks / Holter records continuously; Event monitor only at certain times . Parameters of the machine need to be checked… Discuss with your doctor - The treating doctor alone can suggest further based on his assessment of the situation.
Wishing well
