Sara,

Just a few questions for you...how low is your pulse rate and how about your blood pressure? Have you actually passed out at home?

My pulse rate here at work is 58 per minute. Not sure what my BP is right now. I have never passed out.
I do suffer from anxiety and Panic attacks, so I to worry about my heart, even though no tests that I have had has shown any problems.

My blood pressure is normally 90/60 (this morning it was 110/72) and my pulse averages 60 bpm. I have only passed out once while at home and it was immediately after I thought I had a heart attack (that was the episode that originally put me in the hospital). During my tilt table test on Tuesday I passed out after they gave me the nitro. In fact, I flatlined for 6 seconds and then "came to" all on my own.
