Heart Rate

[austinluck21]

As i lie in bed at night, my heart rate reads anywhere from 45-55 bpm. sometimes it drops to around 43. should i be worried? My chest is always tight it feels like. can't go to the doctor for a month and a half when insurance kicks in.

My heart rate also drops that low at night ever since my anxiety has improved. I do believe it was always on the low side due to growing up quite active. When my anxiety first started a year ago it was alwYs high I got an ultra sound of the heart and wore a 24 hr monitor and apparently all is good, so I'm sure you are fine too, however always good to ask your doctor. Are you more relaxed at night? Do you ever get a fast heart rate when anxious?

Yeah i'm really relaxed at night time it's almost like my anxiety just goes away. My heart rate does elevate quite a bit when i'm anxious

Well that's your answer I also am relaxed at night, try not to take your pulse I shouldn't talk as I always do lol
