For anyone who, like me, does not know what that rash is:
Hi I had an unidentified rash all over my torso and arms. Also suffering from bradycardia. Can I ask what your resting heart rate is and what’s the maximum rate when exercising? My doctors are saying my heart rate will likely recover when my medication is at the correct dose even though it’s getting progressively worse.
Hi I don’t have the rash at the moment, but when I did it was the similar to the one in the following picture.

My heart rate is at its lowest is 45 bpm but improved for a sort while but has recently started dropping. Are you having ectopic beats during the pauses?
Hi, yes I have this! I also have lichen planus in my mouth. I sometimes put hydrocortisone cream on my skin and I think it helps a bit, but it does tend to come and go. I generally find it's worse when I'm feeling really run down. I've never found a doctor who can really help with it unfortunately.
Hi Alison I was wondering if it's anything to do with lack of vitamins as a few of mine are low..
Hi raine-wager I'm waiting to see another Endocrinologist so everything on hold at the mo. But thought I'd tell you that my heart and BP have always been really good and I knew it was ok in November of last year because I check it at my GP surgery machine.
Quite by chance while having a procedure done in October I was told my heart rate was 120BPM. They checked it 4 times before I left and it remained about the same & told me to see my GP who referred me on to Cardio. A 24 hour monitor test revealed my heart rate was 87 BPM during sleep and average rate 104 BPM when awake. 3 Episodes of AV Mobitz type 1 noted! This is the latest symptom for me and waiting to see Cardio again.
I have developed a rash on my scalp recently too. I've developed all sorts of weird things bit by bit but the heart one was a bit of a shock.
Take care
