What Causes Heart Fatigue Post Strenuous Exercise?
I am a long time runner and exercise enthusiast. I just turned 60 in May and have been running quite a bit to train for a fall marathon. After running and other vigorous exercise, my heart feels tired and it kind of scares me. Is this a sign of something wrong?
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
From your history nothing seems to be of medical concerns. But you can't let your heart go like this. I preferably suggest you to consult a Cardiologist for proper evaluation and complete cardiac workup. It is necessary at this age group. He will do hysical examination and some diagnostic tests including but not limited to blood work, Echocardiography, EKG, exercise tolerance test etc etc.
Hope I answered all of your health concerns . If you have further questions in future, feel free to contact me anytime. In the start of your question write my name, and I will get back to you in no time. If satisfied, please click you found it helpful.
Have a wonderful time ahead.
Best Regards!
