A member asked:
Take my pulse it is 69bpm, after 1 minute i take it again its 74bpm, then another minute after its 72bpm. is this normal? or do i have arrythmia?

Normal: The numbers that you report are all close, and within a margin of acceptable variability for palpable pulse count. The best way to diagnose an arrythmia would be by ekg. But your pulse counts do not suggest this need. If you feel you have other reason to seek an EKG, discuss this with your doctor.
