Post Partum BPM 45

by lucyluu, Jun 14, 2008 12:46AM
I delivered 1.5 weeks ago and the delivery went fine.  My normal hr pre pregnancy was 70-80 resting.  In recovery I noticed that it was 65 but didnt have any concerns because I new that I had just delivered.  Over the weekend it went down to 55 and now today 45BPM.  I went to the ER and my blood pressure was normal.  They did a VCT and an ultra sound of my legs and found no clots.  They also did a chest x ray and that was fine.  What could be happening to me.  They said that this is not normal but my vitals are normal.  I have a balloon feeling in my chest and upper back that comes and goes and I only feel faint when I first get up and move around.  I have no swelling or blurry vision.  I have had a few headaches but I am also prone to Ocular Migraines.  What could be happening here?

Thanks,
Lucy
