What Causes Constipation, Lightheadedness And Slower Pulse Rate?
I've been constipated about 6 days. During that time I have also had short bouts of feeling jittery, anxious, and light headed once or twice.
When I take my pulse, it remains slow and steady. any ideas? I'm 49, 6'2, 205, moderately active. No history of heart disease or high bp. Don't know my cholesterol levels.

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to constipation. I recommend using over the counter option like Miralax.
I recommend using daily probiotics.
I suggest you drink liquids and eat a fibre-rich diet.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
