The Brooklyn journalist and podcast have got a warning a week ago from his Heart Watch application saying that his heart rate was higher than normal. In spite of sitting at his work area for a few hours, his heart never fell underneath his standard resting rate of 54.
The warning, alongside a couple of different side effects that Green had seen amid the week, provoked him to visit a specialist.
A CT scan at that point demonstrated that the 28-year-old New Yorker had an aspiratory embolism in his lungs, which – if overlooked for any more drawn out – would have been deadly.
An aspiratory embolism happens when supply routes inside the lungs are hindered by blood clusters. On account of Green's initial notice of the condition, he was treated with blood thinners to separate the coagulations.
Green gave a shout out to the life-saving application on Twitter, expressing gratitude toward them for saving his life.
The Heart Watch Twitter account reacted by saying:
“Thanks! Also wow! This is so fantastic that you are ok. Humbled to have played a part. Wishing you a rapid recovery & best of future health.”
