Resolved Question: Possible underlying heart condition?
I know this is something i should really see a physician about but im just curious to find out some possibilities before i worry too much to go out to the doctor…about 3 years ago i had a heart ablation to correct a tachycardia arythmia…surgery went ok…occasionally it still beats irregularly but its usually a matter of seconds before it corrects itself nothing like it used to be where i would suffer for hours sometimes with my heart racing..but now recently..i have noticed that my heart beats extremely slowly…sometimes when im getting ready to drift off to sleep it beats so slowly it feels like it is about to stop…i have to get myself up so that it will feel normal again…at times it feels as though i am struggling to get enough air…like im having trouble breathing..but not as severe as something like asthma…and recently i have noticed now that upon standing i get extremely dizzy..not just occasionally..its like all the time…ive had an ecg recently as i have to for my job…and the first time i had it done i read the paper and it says borderline bradychardia…im in med school so i know a little bit about this stuff..i know what bradycardia is..but it didnt really concern the physician..my blood pressure is usually relatively low…more often im within the range of about 100/54 or very close to that…last time i went to the doc they had to retake my blood pressure because he said it was too low…this rather concerns me because even after he retook it my bp was still low..but they have a tendancy to overlook these things..i dont have a choice in physicians due to my location currently..just wondering if i may have something relatively serious going on here that i should be concerned about…if it were just the one or the other i may not be to concerned but this is a combination of things that i think may be building up for something worse to happen..no im not a hypochondriac..i hate doctors i dont like pills and such…but i think this is enough to warrant a concern
no im not on any medications…i never was they just happened to “catch” the abnormality while i was in labor one day because during childbirth they always have you hooked up to like a ton of stuff…but it presented itself then and thats the only reason they caught it that time
