hi my name is Robin. My mom is 57 years old. he heart rate is now slowed to 47, she has had many strokes and heart atacks in the past 4 years. She has 9 stents as of right now. Is it normal for her  heart to beat slower now and do we  have anything to worry about?
Hello Robin and thank you for using Chat Doctor. I carefully read your question and I understand your concealer. I will try to give you my opinion. In fact, as you describe your mom has a complicated heart history. As she had done a heart attach, and it is a confirmed ischemic heart disease corrected with stents it is mandatory to have a slow heart rate. It is our goal when we treat ischemic heart disease to have slow heart rates. As the heart has problems with normal blood supply thought the coronary artery it is mandatory to lower the heart work. So, through medications we lower the frequency, the blood pressure to makes thinks easier for the suffering heart. So you don't have nothing to worry about this frequency. The frequency between 45-50 its quite normal. I would like to advise you that only if she feels fatigue, if she experiences syncope or chest pains and a heart beat below 40 she should seek medical attention. So, don't worry about the moment because every think is quite normal and what we desire in her situation. Hope I was helpful. BEST REGARDS.
