historically medical community don't have enough data about how post-infection recovery has been in large populations w.r.t heart rates
I'd agree here. Most doctors have not really caught up to the giant data science revolution we have going on. A couple years ago I bought one of these [1] while trying to diagnose some general health/fatigue issues and after a year of data logging and life experiences it was pretty cool to watch how my HR/O2 numbers changed in response to various events - long bike rides, strength training, getting a cold, being on antibiotics, etc. The nice thing about this device was 1) it's much more accurate than smart watches and 2) provides raw time-series data vs some abstract fancy marketing UI.
At this point I now do comprehensive bloodwork panels at least quarterly and while I don't use the O2 device anymore I still have the baseline data saved. I'd recommend to anyone to start recording this type of data while you subjectively "feel good". It'll make it much easier to diagnose + press doctors on health issues if you can point to data associated with a time you felt well.
