Yes, see a doc.: A normal heart rate is generally between 60-110. Sometimes athletes will have somewhat lower resting heart rates, but 35 is too low and not normal. This could be a structural issue with your heart or an issue with the way your heart conducts electricity to keep it beating normally. Especially considering your family history, I would be evaluated by your PCP or Cardiologist as soon as you can.

Hi, Since a week ago, I noticed that I can hear a beat sound (like a fast heart rate) when I am in bed with my ear on the pillow. Seems to be a faster beat than my heart rate and I stop hearing it as soon as I change the position of my head. Thank?

I can hear rush of blood and my heart beating loudly in my left ear. Notice heart beat sounds stop or greatly diminish when lifting legs. What is this? Why getting louder and is affected by body movements?
