Q: Heart rate measured as double at rest

Hello. When my rate rate is low (<55bpm) it will often incorrectly register as double. For example, sitting inactive and measuring my heart rate three times using the Heart Rate Glance might measure it as 52, 104, 52. It clearly isn't 104, it's still 52, but it cannot correct profile the beat.

 

The watch is a snug fit. Any suggestions? I get the same proem when the heart rate is sampled automatically at timed intervals.

    You may be suffering from A.Fib. My suggestion is that you should get to an emergency room quick. Hopefully, there's an Apple store nearby in case the doctors say your heart is OK. Have them 'shock' your watch – it couldn't hurt.
