I will not buy again

My cardiologist advised me to buy a wearable device to measure and record heart disease. I had an ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation over a year ago. After the ablation I had heart problems for a few days and I wrote them down. There were no major issues, just minor omissions. I recently had to go to a wedding. I was nervous. My heart started pounding. I knew it wasn't a big deal since I've had it before, but I used the machine to record. The reading was VPB RonT. I couldn't find anything in the literature about what VPB RonT had in mind. I repeated the test several times over the next hour and got the same message on the display. I did a google search for VPB RonT and read that this could be a serious problem. I had to be at the wedding in 2 hours. On Sunday afternoon I went to the hospital and asked the people in the hospital if they could tell me if I had a problem or not. The ER worker and two people she interviewed said they were unfamiliar with the machine I was using and could not comment on what VPB RonT meant. They suggested I confess and take tests. I did this in hopes of speaking to a doctor who could help me figure out what was going on. All my tests were fine except the EKG had some gaps. In the end, the doctor saw that R on T was only seen in patients with injuries or electrical problems like cardioversion. I got fired and went to the wedding 3 hours late. The following Tuesday I went to my cardiologist and he said that my device could not determine R on T. Because the manufacturer has no information about R on T in their literature. and my DR said he could not make such a diagnosis. I'm confused as to why the manufacturer made this diagnosis. I'm also unhappy that the hospital staff didn't find my readings helpful as that was one of the reasons I bought this device. I'm not very happy.
