It should be noted, that my heart rate fell below 60 while resting on Saturday. This was kind of concerning, as that is the opposite of tachycardia. It was a drop of 9 bpm from the lowest i had recorded it, previously at 67, now at 58. I was initially waiting for my blood pressure to fall under 110 on top, but it was only 112, and since my heart rate was getting 'too low', and i have that mixed with my blood pressure meds, i felt that it was time to lower the medication, which had been on standby. Today, I took only 100mg pills twice. Instead of 200mg twice per day. My resting heart rate was 66, and my bp was 130/75. If the bp starts going high, i suppose i could try doing 300mg a day, and then eventually dropping to 200, so we will let this adjust for a week and see how it goes. My exercise has been through the roof so to speak due to my water heater issue, so i'm sure this is helping immensely.
