hello,
Your pulse rate is on lower side and also weight gain. This can be a manifestation of hypothyroidism. So get thyroid test done. Also, if normal, you ll need evaluation for low heart rate as it can lead to current symptoms and also fainting, dizziness and syncope. So you ll need ecg and holter monitoring as well. Make sure you are not any drugs other than losartan, which can cause low pulse rate.
