hello,
Whats your age.
Heart rate of 40 is less. Your symptoms are probably due to this, do u ever had fainting or syncope.
You should get thyroid test done, if low needs to be on supplements and also kidney function test.
If both of the above are normal, then you probably and low heart rate is persistent then you ll be a candidate for pacemaker.
