Hi..Thanks for using healthcare magic
Since You have a history of coronary artery disease all the present medicines are necessary.You are not taking any pulse rate reducing drugs at present.It is advisble to check the thyroid profile,since low thyroid hormone levels can cause low pulse rate and weakness.
HbA1C-6.8 means you are diabetic,6.5 is the cut off for diagnosing Diabetes.Please do a FBS & PPBS.Consult your physician with the results for starting treatment
You can apply stockings to avoid postural drop in Blood pressure
Thank u...
