Not really: If he is still active, that is very good. Her heart rate may cause her to sleep a lot so even if she is asymptomatic otherwise, it is always good to have her doctor monitor this and her other medical problems.

Pacemaker???: Hi. That's a very low heart rate, and may be associated with passing out & falling, which could be disastrous. If indicated, ask her doctor if she needs to be evaluated by a cardiologist for a pacemaker. Good luck to her!
