I have mild left ventricular dysfunction and systolic and diastolic dysfunction. I take no meds. I also have tachycardia and suspected lone Atrial flutters, and various other types of arrythmia.
My resting pulse since falling ill, is 60 bpm.
A few weeks ago, after some strong unidentified arrythmias (had no monitor at the time, and they subside when going to ER), my resting pulse which use to be 60 bpm is now 75 bpm. It does not feel comfortable. Not bothersome, but felt better when it went down to 60 bpm.
Why does this happen? What can be the cause? Is that was it is called "reset" and should I tell my GP about this?
Anyone else had this sudden weird change?
I told an electrophysiologist who was fitting me with an event monitor (incidentally, didn't catch anything yet!!!). He didn't seem bothered by this.
I did a high dose of L Carnitine a few weeks ago ...
