Hello,

You need a cardiac check up if you are having symptoms of low heart rate(Bradycardia). Cause of bradycardia can be due to hypothyroidism or some medications beta blockers, antiarrhythmics or any other medication that you might be taking. Bradycardia is a condition when the heart does not pump enough oxygen rich blood to the body. Get CBC, Urinalysis, X-Ray, ECG, Echocardiography & other imaging tests like CT, MRI, etc done. Get evaluated & treated. Your treatment will depend upon the cause, you may need a pacemaker.

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

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K,
