Low Resting Heart Rate

I’m not on beta blockers but whilst sleeping my heart rate seems low, is this unusual?

11 months post NSTEMI stent to LAD. I’m fitter than many (probably 😁) for my age. Plenty of exercise inc running walking.

Is this common? I’m on Rampril taken at bedtime. What’s your experience?

hi I am on similar path and meds to you but no nstemi had balloon stent done to my 70% blockage last Oct like you I have always kept my self pretty fit running swimming and lots of walking ,my sleeping heart rate goes down to around 40 I discussed this with my consultant when attending echocardiagram stress test 2 weeks ago and he was not concerned at all thought it was all OK as your heart is very strong through all the excersise, when resting during day it is usually around 55, so unless you feel dizzy or breathless I would not worry ,
