True to that, just around 15 days ago my heart rate suddenly went from 60s to 40s and my Apple Watch started to give me alerts “as I set it to notify me if it’s below 48bpm”. Did all the test and everything seems fine it’s just changed apparently, I still walk 3 miles and run around 3 miles everyday, still doing my weight lifting daily for 45 min to an hour. Sometimes it’s just good to hear experiences and explanation of others to ease the anxiety

I knew it was bad when they sent me to their competitors hospital. I drove myself against their wishes, then an ambulance transferred me 80 miles to St. Lukes in Milwaukee, had surgery in a matter of hours. No one could believe I was walking around and doing normal things laundry, driving etc. Thank you God!

You may have been dehydrated, most docs don’t have experience working with someone healthy and think they are sick if heart rate is low. I biked 32 miles today and ran a mile afterwards but drank 100 oz of fluids with electrolytes. Added a teaspoon of salt to each water bottle. Salt is not the problem; sugar is.

I wake up with a heart rate of 38 bpm. As soon as I get up it jumps to 50 bpm. Then averages out to between 45 - 60 bpm, depending what I am doing (resting or walking around). A brisk walk can take it into the 90 + bpm range. I have been like this all my life. I am 76 today and have never felt better.

Great talk! One other factor is being athletic tends to lower heart rate. I am 76 years old and have been running for 50 years, currently at about 250-270 miles of running per month. My resting heart rate in the morning is 35-39 bpm. While running it is typically 120 or so bit I can push it to 150-160 without feeling tired. I live in Boulder City, Nevada and this time of year I often run at 40-45°C with no problems. A lifetime of running has kept me young! I regularly run with a 31 year old friend and he is amazed that I can run at 76, me too actually.

I've recently been having bradycardia at night and I just wanted to tell you that hearing you say my heart won't just stop made me instantly burst into tears. This is such a terrifying experience and even though sometimes I can help myself by doing vagus nerve activation the fear that my children will wake up to a dead mother is so real and it's affecting me every day of my life. I've been brushed off because of a normal ekg and I'm using your videos to empower myself. Thank you. You might not realize how much you're helping some of us, but you really are.

Obviously, my anxiety brought me here. I used to get bad palpitations and they suddenly stopped for a while and now i’ve been obsessing about my low heart rate. My apple watch has been showing my heart dipping to 55-60 while resting and even while trying to move around. I’m 21 and i’m not as active as I should be so I feel like it’s not normal. I have been feeling slightly dizzy but it feels like an ear problem. One thing, though, is I always have cold toes ans hands and my toenails have a hue of purple sometimes so that worries me a lot. Been to numerous cardiologists but have never told them about that. I’ve gotten ekgs, echos, holter monitors, and bloodwork done. Doc says my heart is perfect but my hypochondria tells me otherwise.

I’m 45 years old and while I am a former smoker and overweight, I have done a lot of cardio exercise throughout my life. It’s only in the past 5 or 6years that I’ve gained weight. Even more recently I’ve started cardio again and I’m able to go inline skating for about an hour without issue. This is how I figured my heart is ok. But I’ve noticed that my resting heart rate while lying down is anywhere from 52 to 58 BPM and it’s freaked me out. It’s really when it’s closer to 52 that I get really concerned. BUT I don’t feel lightheaded, my feet aren’t tingling or cold... so I guess... by your explanation, I’m actually fine. Thank you. (I’ll check with my cardiologist soon too)

I’m a 72 yo F, pretty active but have been unable to keep up with my normal pace for 9 months now. I’m under the care of a cardiologist and she is doing her best to find out what is going on BUT I needed to see your video to put my mind to rest. Thank you again for this video, your explanation was very easy to follow and understand. I have been diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

My dear Doctor Sanjay Gupta, thanks for putting my mind at ease. Twenty-five years ago, my family doctor was really concerned that my heartbeat could drop as low as 40 BPM. He finally came to the conclusion that my heart was working very efficiently and that was the explanation. I was at that time 49 years of age. Recently, I had an EKG done and my cardiologist consultant picked right up immediately that my BMP was less than 60 and in the mid 40's. He ordered that I maintain a log of my BP in the AM and PM before taking medications for a period of 15 days. At the end of the 15 days I could either fax, mail or drop the log off at his office. He further order that I should wear the Holt Monitor for a period of 14 days. Of course there is a waiting period of this time and I will be fitted on December 5th. Yes, I have been worried that my heart could in fact stop and that I could have a heart attack or stroke. Again, thanks for putting my mind at ease. I don't know where this journey will end concerning my low heart beat but I believe the outcome will be good as I do not feel dizzy nor have I ever blacked out.

Correct. My resting heart rate is 38 to 42 BPM. I never have dizzy spells or blackouts. I am fit, sports-active, healthy and 63 years old. Just as the doctor says, the heart rate isn't the critical variable: its the volume of blood that the heart is able to pump multiplied by its stroke rate that determines whether the variable demand of the body can be satisfied.

Thank you so much for this excellent video! It is a great explanation in language that a non-doctor like myself can understand. I have been having a lower heart rate according to my readings, I am quite certain as a result of a beta-blocker that my doctor has put me on. I have been very anxious about this, and addressed it with my doctor. He unfortunately could not explain to me or calm me nearly as well as you did in this video. I have lowered my dosage of the beta-blocker and my blood pressure readings have remained relatively stable. Ideally, I will do away with the beta blocker completely, in consultation with my doctor. I have had slight dizziness when standing up, but more crucially I have noticed myself awakening suddenly in the middle of the night, consequently disturbing my sleep and causing other issues from not getting a well-rested sleep. Thanks again!!!

@@shankarkaluri5250 Just to clarify, many people who partake in cardio exercises tend to have a slower heart rate. This is partly due to the heart itself being a giant muscle. When the heart rate gets faster, it allows the heart to essentially become stronger. When people have lower heart rates due to exercise, it is usually because there heart is strong enough to beat less than the average heart due to the strength of its contractions! Its pretty cool.

My knees prevent me running but I can Nordic walk at 4.5 mph for more than an hour, and live at the bottom of a steep hill which I need to walk up to get to town. When I moved here 42 years ago I couldn't get up the hill without huffing and puffing, and stopping several times - as the aged inhabitants of the village would storm past me - very embarrassing! But now I can storm up, no problem. At one point this morning my pulse was 38, but returning from a 3 mile walk it had risen to 43. It was REALLY GOOD to be reassured that the rate is effectively self healing (not enough oxygen - feel dizzy - sit down - oxygen catches up). From time to time GPs have suggested I should do something to increase the pulse rate. I never have - and now I am confident I was correct in refusing. - So thank you very much

@@sshreyas8599 I have been a few times, she said that nothing seems to be wrong with my head (in terms of something like multiple sclerosis or brain tumour - extreme stuff) and that she wanted to have my heart reviewed by a cardiologist, I’ve got an ECG booked in for Monday 6th March so will see what that shows

Our cardiologist (🇨🇦) is pleasant enough but is very clinical. Orders tests, meds, brief difficult to understand synopsis of his findings and says see you in a year. 😅. I’m 75 with LBBB and husband is 77 with Bradycardia. You are my go to YT cardiologist, Dr Gupta, when I want the real lowdown on our conditions. 😊. Hubby just wore Holter for 2 weeks and had his yearly Echocardiogram. Came here to get prepared for the coming follow up appointment. Always know that you are appreciated for your clear & reassuring videos!!! 🙏🏼 🤩

Thank you sooo much! I have anxiety and when I saw my heart rate went down to 57 bpm while I was laying down and about to go to sleep, I FREAKED OUT because I literally don't exercise or work out for my pulse to be so low tike that! To the point that I didn't sleep just to keep checking my pulse. After watching your video, I can now sleep.. Thank you soooo much.😘

Dr. Thank you for taking the time to put these videos out. Ever since I can remember I’ve always had a resting heart rate around 55 and when I sleep it sometimes dips to around 48. When I get up and walk around it goes up into the 90-100 mark. I had Covid in sept 2021 and since then have had major anxiety. I’ve went to the ER twice and two different hospitals have said they see no issues with my heart. The reason I went is because I was light headed and felt fatigued and with that my slower heart rate. In December 2021 I wore a heart monitor for two weeks and that result was I had some PAC’s and PVC’s, no signs of blockage or abnormal arrhythmia. They didn’t see any cause for concerns. To this day however I am still light headed and fatigued. I didn’t feel this particularly way before Covid. I’m still trying to get it in my mind that it’s just Covid symptoms.

I feel the same, Mr Garcia. My resting heart rate is usually around 55 and dips to 49 to 52 while asleep. I think the issue of fatigue or tiredness is the anxiety brought about by the Covid situations. I have anxiety issues too, thinking something is wrong with my heart until they did some tests in the hospital and found nothing is wrong with my heart. Now I know I have to work on my stress level so that I can control my anxiety situations.

@@delebabatunde6072 I understand completely. I’ve noticed if I’m tired or stressed my heart rate seems to be slower. I’m also currently correcting adrenal fatigue. My hormones were messed up. My estrogen level was to low as was my progesterone. I’m on natural supplements and it’s been helping also with proper clean eating diet. Right now though I have a head cold and my heart rate is lower than it usually is. I’ve also been to the hospital many times in the past had multiple EKG’s done and blood work chest x rays and even worn a heart monitor for 2 weeks 24/7 and they haven’t seen anything to be concerned about. But I to have to keep my stress levels down and anxiety down also.

By chance are you experiencing unusual digestive symptoms such as bloating? Perhaps there is influence from the Vagus nerve. Some GI conditions can actually slow the heart causing frequent PVCs. Other neurological issues could as well.

@@fjs1111 yes I’ve been very bloated. I’ve since started to take probiotics and cut back on sugars, processed foods, caffeine and the bad carbohydrates. I’ve also been diagnosed with adrenal fatigue, low estrogen and progesterone. I’m currently seeing a holistic doctor and taking natural supplements to correct these issues.

My mother who is 88 just had a monitor placed on her for 2 weeks to see why she had a stroke. The report said that her heart beat had went very slow 3 times during that period. They are already talking about her needing a pacemaker. This video helped put what we were told in perspective.

Gotta tell you I love your videos! I am 67 and have had 6 strokes, open heart surgery for mechanical mitral valve, I have HOCM and vascular disease. Oh and also suffer from Afib! But still keep recovering and one would never know I have had so much trouble. Took me a long time to come back from a few strokes especially my first stroke which was a brain stem stroke, I could not walk or talk for a while. I really appreciate all the good information I get from your channel, we all know when we go to doctor we never remember what we wanted to ask until we are out the door. So thank you so much please keep sharing all this good information.

Thank you Dr for explaining this information to me, I’ve got Bradycardia and no one at my hospital or Drs surgery has taken the time to explain this in such detail to me, I was fitted with a loop recorder for 3 years and I kept getting phone calls from the hospital telling me my heart rate is slow “ which I know “ but they didn’t actually do anything about it so I’ve had the loop recorder removed today , listening to this detailed information has put my mind at rest and now I can get on with the rest of my life without any worries ❤️
