How To Lose Weight While Suffering From Bradycardia And Arrhythmia?

I have bradycardia and arrhythmia. Heart rate drops into 30s regularly. Don t get dizzy or anything; so cardiologist said not to treat it. Problem is I want to lose weight an get back to running (used to run regularly 12miles/day and miss it). I cant seem to lose. Is my bradycardia effecting my ability to lose weight? If so, what can I do about it?

Hello,

I think you should check thyroid function doing T3 T4 and TSH levels. Hypothyroidism may be a cause of your symptoms of increasing weight and low heat rate.

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

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
