This is fine, as long as you continue to feel your normal self (no dizziness or fainting).

A resting heart rate of 48 while awake and going about your activities is concerning enough.especially. if your heart rate doesn't increase appropriately during activity or exertion. If your heart rate is always under 50, I think you should at least have an EKG to rule out causes of bradycardia such as AV block.
