Dizziness And Slow Heart Rate

Right now my mom has a slow heart rate of 42 and she is experiencing dizziness right now. she is also feeling tired and bloated. She does have a heart condition and is taking blood pressure medication (beta blocking) if thats any help. What is wrong with her and is she okay?

Thanks for the query

The reason for the dizziness is the beta blocker, it is reducing the heart rate a little too much. I suggest u speak to the cardiologist and shift to calciu channel blockers instead.
Also get a re echo done and an ECG
