I bought a KardiMobile 6L

Grab your bear can or camp chair, kick your feet up and chew the fat about anything Sierra Nevada related that doesn't quite fit in any of the other forums. Within reason, (and the HST rules and guidelines) this is also an anything goes forum. Tell stories, discuss wilderness issues, music, or whatever else the High Sierra stirs up in your mind.

I bought a KardiMobile 6L

Post by rlown »

It is an EKG sensor (1 lead or 6 lead.) Shows I'm not dying, yet. I didn't get the 10/month analysis as it gives me enough info.
I did find out today that if you place it upside down, you get a Brachia or Tachycardia reading. My bad. :D
The readings can be shared with your doctor. The 6 lead gives a lot of more info. Links to a phone app.

Fun for those that can read it. :)

Would you expect to get chest pain prior to a larger event?

I never heard of a KardiMobile 6L until now and figured you bought a new fishing pole. :)

Yes. I had a cardio cath in 2012. Trying to decide if the pressure I feel is gas, heart or muscle strain. Seemed cheap and fun to try. Had a history of hypertension, which magically disappeared when I left work. I'm thinking gas and muscle strain; left handed and lift everything on that side.

Got healthcare again and see the doc on Tuesday. Should be fun.

Looks like a good device to prevent false assumptions. I has a cath way back and had obvious pain. Good luck at the docs.

Thanks for the heads up, Russ. Can you strap it to your leg (or somewhere) and use it while you exercise?

It takes a 30 second sample and does not strap to your leg.
