My heart rate got down to 44 beats per minute today. I looked up the risks associated with slow heart rate and it said "fainting" and "sudden cardiac arrest". I've had a few chest pains in the past few months and one episode of shortness of breath. I saw the doctor already and they did an EKG that turned up normal.
My heart rate shortly returned to 64 beats per minute and now it's up to 80 after drinking some coffee.
What should I do about this? I'm a little hesitant to go to the doctor at this point, but perhaps if it becomes a problem in some way.
