A member asked:
If you didn't feel symptoms you complained about during the 24 hr holter, is it fair to request a longer monitoring duration?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sure: symptoms while monitoring are helpful, but if you didn't have symptoms, we still haven't sorted out the symptoms. can do a month long monitor; very rare but severe symptoms can be sorted out with an implantable monitor with a 2 year battery. google "event monitor" & "implantable loop recorder"
