up.jawbone

Hi.
I was given an up.jawbone movement/sleep monitor for Christmas and although the manual says nothing about pacemakers it does refer to the emission of radio signals. Does anyone have experience of these gadgets and can they affect pms?

Like fitbits

They appear to be like fitbits. Fitbits don't cause a problem with PM's. Per and extremely long message I did on the forum, RFI needs to be in the thousands of watts of power before it will affect your PM. Fitbits and up.jawbone type units are nowhere near causing any problems.

Question in my mind is if those type of devices will annoy you and keep you awake more than if you would not use them at all? But hey, whatever floats your boat.

Hope it helps.

I think these things are actually very good for people with Heart Issues. I have one in my phone and was happy that I got one for Christmas. I find that I really do count my steps for the day and what to hit the 10,000 mark each day. That is a good thing!!!

Don't worry about the PM issues….I researched that a lot and there is nothing to fear.

Just get up and get going and enjoy
