Why?

I did that too, several times. The only prob I had was pushing the button fast enough to record the skipped beats. But this was years ago they surely updated and made it easier by now. Good luck!

I have worn a couple of times. The longest for mine was 72 hours. You will get use to it as it's not painful but cumbersome. They do this to detect abnormalities such as AFIB, high or low heart rate, truly amazing the technology these days.

Worn one couple of times. They are a little annoying and cumbersome, but not painful. Don’t think my heart acted up one time while eating it!

I wore a heart monitor for 30 days twice. It’s hard to quickly pushing the button to let them know what is going on. It does show on my readings when I am in a fib. That’s if I don’t push the button.
