Foxy, is your appt. Thursday this week (tomorrow)?
I do hope so and that you get some good news.
Try not to worrry, it may be better than you think.
Thanks Mups, it was good news, so it looks like the forum is stuck with me for a while longer yet.....

Also good to know there's a reason why I'm not getting notifications from the site..............wondered if I'd been excommunicated!!!
Thanks Lindyloo, and yes I'm having all kinds of bother. Boxes ticked and saved, and spam folder checked, but not much getting through....

Personally,O GF....I would get it checked out by the doctor.
Thanks pauline, and yes my heart beat has always been slow, it only speeds up when I read one of your posts.....

Thanks Zuleika, had to go private and pay a king's ransom, but they are very thorough and all the tests are done yesterday. I have every faith in the NHS but I might not live long enough to use them....

Yes Bob, I have used one for a while.
I also have an approved Blood Pressure Monitor.
I use both and they serve me well.
As has been said, low pulse, low pressure is a sign of an Athlete.
My problem is different, my Blood Pressure tanks from time to time to dangerous levels.
Same here Swim, the pulse Oxymeter and Blood Pressure monitor have been priceless in keeping track of my stats, and I've just taken delivery of a heart rate monitor worn on the wrist, but the signal comes from a chest strap, which I'm told are very accurate and reliable. I'll be able to see what's happening while out running to prevent over stressing my heart....
