Cardiologist,  's  Response
Hello,

People who are intensely active can have heart rate less than 60, which is normal but numbness isn’t associated. If your stress test if normal then I’ll recommend you to go for CT angio left arm and consult me back with reports.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap, Cardiologist
