1. While 'too low' depends on the individual, 70/50 (if accurate) really is too low.
2. In addition to the fluids and salt intake, tight-fitting hose can help keep blood from pooling in the veins. The best kind of stockings are ones that are medically-fitted.
3. No, I do not think that the two are related.
4. Almost never. Other than the fact that they may cause discomfort, they pose no threat to the heart muscle itself unless extremely frequent.
5. If you have not fainted and you can tolerate your symptoms, it is probably best just to live with occasional palpitations. If the symptoms are severe and disrupting your life, I think proceeding with an EP study and possible sinus node modification (with its risks)sounds reasonable.
6. An EP doctor is best-suited for this sort of problem. Some hospitals (such as ours) have a dedicated syncope clinic which specilaizes in autonomic disorders.
I don't know much about the condition you describe, but I take tenormin for long QT. Before the tenornim, my bp was low, and now on tenormin it is 80/40 and my heart rate is 60. No one has seemed concerend because I've never passed out because of it. I just get really dizzy when I stand up. Unfortunately they aren't willing to switch meds or lower the dose because of a number of other things I have going on as well. Unless I pass out, they will probably leave it where it is. I don't think it's anything to be concerned about, but again I don't know much about what you have. Good luck.
