4. wow, 28 bpm

I had a weekend about five years ago when mine was hovering just above thirty.

Unfortunately two of my important pills also have the effect of slowing bpm. One is my beta blocker, which controls things like PVCs, skipped beats, etc., and the other is a blood pressure pill for systolic spikes (a routine thing for me). So I'm instructed to hold those pills when pulse is below fifty. Ha. That's most of the time recently.

I would feel great with 55 bpm.

The ER is my plan if I feel symptomatic.
