Consistant low pulse rate

Consistant low pulse rate

Posted By Donni McMasters on July 12, 1999 at 13:09:17
I am a 31 year old female with a consistantly low pulse rate.  I have Hypothyroidism and I am on .075 mg Synthroid.  I am not an athelete although I do try to keep up with my 2 small children.  I had chest pains recently and was told that my EKG was normal but I had a low pulse rate.  I asked the doctor if that would make me fatigued and he answered yes.  He did not seem concerned.  I feel tired all the time and was wondering if this is something that I should have looked at more closely.  I do seem to feel lightheaded at some times but can go days without feeling it.  I am currantly breast feeding an infant also.  So I do know there are not many drugs that I can take at present.  I check my bp regulary and it is below normal at about 110/60 most of the time.  The highest my pulse has been after working outside or some activity is 60.  I'm not sure as to the lowest it has gone.  
Thank You for your time and consideration,
Donni McMasters
