Hi
I've been getting chest pain and vibrations from my chest for the past several weeks sine my first panic attack(thinking i was having a heart attack), i went to my GP and they said it was nothing to worry about, its gotten worse the past week, so i went back to my GP today, she took my bloood pressure and listened to my heart, and took my pulse and it was 60, she's scheduled me for a 24hour ECG next week. She said my heart rate was slow, and i've been checking my pulse for the past few weeks to try and see if it was my heart making the vibrations in my chest, and over the last few weeks i've recorded my heart rate at 50 - 65. Is this too slow? especially, as im quite over weight, 21 stone, and im 6ft. and i dont do any excersise. Im a little worried about it being so slow.
If anyone can advise me that would be great.
Thanks
James
