A member asked:
Concerned about slow heartbeat for my 34yr old non athletic husband? especially at night 50-55bpm? he sometimes feels like he can't breathe normal
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Holter Monitor: Heart rate of 50-55 is ok and should not cause any symptoms. A couple of things to do a stress test will help to evaluate the nodale system of the heart and a 24 hour holter can determine the heart rate variability. Canadian study demonstrated that people with a lower heart rate do better compare to rapid heart rate.
