yea they probably will want you to finish the 30 days to see if anything else shows up. and how often you have the fast rate. ask your doctor about it and he can tell you what he/she wants you to do.

It wouldn't hurt to make sure that it is the "correct" one since there are a ton of tachycardias that they may be looking to catch.
