[tazemt]

I am  63 y/o male and I had two heart surgery, the first one was a AVR, but my last surgery I had two bypass and aorta root and AVR , But the question is I have all way had a low heart rate, on my sleep study my heart rate was 34 and at my DR apportment  it was 41, so what can I do to up my heart rate

What did your doctor say about your HR?  that sounds very low.  You didn't say what medications you are on, but that could be the reason.  Discuss adjusting cardiac medications, and if that doesn't work, the possible need for a pacemaker with your cardiologist.

It's it's symptomatic, a pacemaker is the only option.  If it's not symptomatic, don't worry about.
