Fitbit heart rate

I use my Fitbit primarily to monitor my heart rate which is set at 60 BPM.   It is very reassuring to check the graph on the Fitbit app  on my phone in the morning  and confirm that my heart rate graph shows a straight line at 60  BPM.                 This will be extremely useful when my pacemaker is in the replacement mode AKA end of life mode when it locks in at 65 BPM.

nope but the fitbit might not properly read your rate...

You know you're wired when...

You forecast electrical storms better than the weather network.

It is just over 10 years since a dual lead device was implanted for complete heart block. It has worked perfectly and I have traveled well near two million miles internationally since then.
