Low pulse

First post for me. Have had COPD for 10years or more and generally coping pretty well with occasional chest infections. After a 6 week therapy course involving lots of exercise, I continued at home and invested in Oximeter to check oxygen levels and pulse. Oxygen levels vary between 89 to 95, but pulse is sometimes as low as 26 after resting. After visiting COPD nurse , I have had an ECG which confirmed low BPM. Now waiting for a consultant appointment. Should I be concerned ??

Worry is interest paid on a bill before it comes due. Sounds to me like you are doing everything you need to do. Follow up with the doctors.
