Suggest Treatment For Low Heart Rate And Dizziness

I have a heart rate of 50 but really good blood pressure, i occasionaly get a little light headed and have been suffering bouts of shortness of breath on and off for a year (which was thought to be related to cleaning chemicals used in my workplace). Should i be concerned? I exercise reguarly and am fine during these periods (no faintness, no shortness of breath).

Hi There

If you are a physically active person then a rate of 50bpm is ok, yes its quite likely to have breathing problems due to inhalation of chemicals at work place. I would like to suggest you to take proper precautions like using certified masks at work place. And also get a CHEST XRAY PA View done to rule out any lung pathology.

Good Luck
