Apple watch AFIB

2024-11-17 09:44:11
My apple watch is showing AFib. Can you please check if this is false positive? I am getting skipped heart beat after I eat. I was having this issue from past 6months. It comes randomly for some days and will be gone. I even had taken ecg and echo 1 month back and everything is normal. Even I had taken d-dimer which also came normal. I am a bit stressed regarding this apple watch result.

Get a ECG done from nearest centre .It's not clear from tracings whether it's afib or not.

Personally, I don’t recommend these watches in very young people as it creates a lot of anxiety and depression. If you got yourself checked and everything is fine, then do not worry in case of any symptoms of palpitation and breathing difficulty then Kindly consult Cardiologist nearby.
