hi, was wondering if anyone else suffers froma low pulse rate?
i have always suffered from a fast rate in the past, but for the past few weeks its gone down to a resting rate of 48-52 bpm:ohmy:
have been the docs who did an ecg which recorded 51bpm, now he has said i have the heart rate of an athlete.....but im lazy! well im always on the go in the house but dont go the gym or anything. & for a long time have suffered panic/anxiety so none of this make sence. i am 36 and over the last few months have lost over a stone in weight (i am now 7st 6lb) could this have anything to do with it? i also stopped smoking 3 weeks ago but the doc doesnt seem to think that is the reason. i do feel a bit dizzy & sick ( but that could be in my mind lol) the doc has said he will send me to see the cardiac consultant & have my heart measured over a 24 hour period. im soooo worrid & have made myself worse searching the net. im now convinced i have heart disease!
your thoughts would be much appreciated:)
