A couple of days ago my pulse rate was 58, it is now 48 but I have a cold and have taken both ibuprofen and decongestant. I have lost over 4st in weight in the last 6 months and previously had a pulse rate of c80. Is my pulse rate a cause for concern?
Yes,,your pulse is a matter of concern,,as your heart beats is too slow,we have to figure what's wrong with it,,so you should make an ECG and ECHO imaging and see a cardiologist
