Low resting heart rate suddenly come on in last few weeks but particularly over the weekend, also heart pain that doctor says is muscular

[Beckym1]

I have suddenly started to get a low resting heartbeat reading from my Apple Watch, I have been struggling with running when I started to run again this year after a break of a few months I get a pain that takes my breath away, I do some mountain biking and also get it when I’m pedalling up a hill. The pain doesn’t seem to travel and it seems to be between my boobs. It goes away. I thought it might be a flare up of my asthma and ordered some inhalers but they don’t make any difference. The only thing I’ve started to take is HRT tablets. I rang the doctors and they said the pain is just muscle pain and unless I’m dizzy low heart rate isn’t anything to bother about. Should I just accept the pain is muscular every time I run and the low resting heart rate is nothing?

Normally it’s around 60/65, but it’s been around 44-49 and dropped to 34 when sitting watching tv. 1st time my watch said it had dropped below 50 for 10 minutes was 17th March whilst at work, then it’s happened 3 times at weekend whilst sitting.

i have one, not mine in my medicine cupboard and have thought about trying it when the pain comes to see if it goes off ! I know it’s not indigestion, and my inhaler hasn’t helped. It was a momentarily one as low as that and most are between 44/49 for 10 minutes! Thanks for your help.

Ok, so I used the spray and it worked, the pain went, I did get a bit of a headache, but that went after a hour and I managed to do other hills on my bike without the pain, just a little breathless, but that could be my fitness. So do I go back to my doctors for an over the phone consultation ? Do I just keep using the spray 1st for a week or two and then go back to them ?
