I am 50, I have a pulse of 41 now for months. Not tired but some dizzy doesnt last long. I have GERD. I use to take nexium, then protonix then zantac. Had rnuclear stress test done was positive negative, had chest pain went to er had a cardiac catherization done was clear. I got worried scared took xanax for a few days been off all meds for two weeks now pulse last night 41. I walk around its 54 60s 70s sit down 54 48. I this the meds gave me irregular heart will it go back to normal..?Do i need the pace maker?

yes may be due to other medicines effect. discuss with doctor and if possible put off from those for checking.

No wasnt xanax pulse was low before that maybe the other did it tho thanks tho...Nexium protonix and zantac done it. Probly I guess ill go back and see the doc even tho he told me i had a heart blockage and didnt cardiac cath after he told me my stress test was blockage and i was clear. Hmm maybe that did it caridac cath...

its because of sideeffect of xanax you taken previously. pulse rate will slowly improve after some weeks. anyway never take such anxiety medicines, most of them can make pulse go slow. also this happens when take blood pressure pills when pressure is already normal or low.

also app heart rate checker free and is on my iphone works good.
