My Apple Watch saved my life
Hi,
I wanted to share my story how my apple watch most likely save my life and thank apple for it.
As a long time apple fan with 4 kids we have almost everything apple has to offer in our house, however, until Nov 2023 I was the only one without an apple watch, having minor health concerns, and wanting to monitor it more closely, I decided to get myself the Ultra 1.
Little did I know that this would eventually save my life ! In April 2025 , my watch started to give me alert of high heart rate while at rest.
This alert triggered me take my blood pressure and realize I was doing high pressure, I then contacted my doctor where she adjusted my medications for blood pressure early may.
I then received another alert saying trends – your average resting heart rate increased over the last 22 days on May 17th.
Then on the night of May 31st, chest pain woke me up overnight, the previous alert from my watch\iphone played a huge part in my decision of calling the 911 and it ended up being the right one as it was a heart attack !
Thank you Apple !
