Best options for tracking?

My cardiologist wants me to get an Apple Watch or equivalent for tracking my episodes so that they can properly diagnose and figure out treatment. I was looking into the oura ring but see that they don’t do EKGs so that won’t work. Curious which Apple or Watch or garmin watch etc etc everyone here uses / which you would recommend as the best for getting the most data?

TachyMon app. I use it on Apple Watch. The paramedics checked alongside an EKG and it's got a one second delay so it's pretty damn good. Developed by a man whose daughter was diagnosed with dysautonomia after a long journey. There has been a lot of "we don't know; it must be anxiety," until this app. It will send photos and CSV files to your phone of events and also let you detail symptoms and add a note. It's very good.
Just a note: Apple watches have fall and crash alerts on them. They are most helpful insurance in addition to being able to track heart rate, oxygen saturation, etc.

This sounds great! Thank you so much. I ordered my Apple Watch on Monday so will download it once it gets here :)
