I took beta blockers for tachycardia with healthy heart, i have stopped them for some time now. my heart has become slower and i have not been active?

What is your: question? Sometimes we use beta blockers for a period of time and then stop them. Heart rate tends to slow with age although you are not very old. Maintaining a normal activity level will improve your long term health outcome.
