Alert

Hey everyone, first time on here. Question about the carelink monitor does it have a sound or an alarm like our ICD devices?

Yesterday morning heard an alarm that sounded similar to a low battery alarm (device alarm) but I had my device replaced last year. Couldn't tell if it came from me or the carelink monitor. Happened between 6-7 am and then again at 10pm.

Spoke to the hospital in the morning and they checked my sent transmission and said all is fine but then I heard this alarm again at 10pm. I checked the monitor and pressed the arrow button and there was static sound from the monitor.

Clinic is closed and there is no on call people that can read my device or even help at the hospitals (learned this the hard way last year).

Feeling alittle anxiety even though the clinic said all is fine. 

If it is the low battery does anyone know how early this alarm goes off as a warning? 

Thanks

Hah I hear you that is a good way to go. I had the police siren alarm  last year and it was because of a recalled lead and had to have surgery again to replace it. 

This alarm was different and I heard it twice about 15 hours apart both times I was laying in bed next to the monitor. Have not heard it again today so that's  a good sign i guess it's just my paranoia.

Last year had to have the unplanned surgery, this may I was shocked and now this, so i guess it just kinda got to me.
