My pulse is 54, ask me anything!!

[Deja Q]

1. No anxiety.
2. Not a marathon runner for a profession.

[Haole Girl]

1. Has it always been so low?

That's pretty low!

[Deja Q]

4. Used to be around 75/76BPM. Mind you, I had uncontrollable anxiety

at the time.

The anxiety is under control...

2. What's your resting BP? n/t

[Deja Q]

3. Usually 118/70, but when I took the pulse reading, it was 145/89

Is that bad?

[Deja Q]

6. A retest showed 127/81, pulse 52

[sarge43]

8. Not really unless it stays that way.

120/70 is the preferred for an adult. Don't panic, BP can jump around, even eating a heavy meal can jack it. If your morning BP is routinely around 120/70, with that pulse, you'll live forever.

[Deja Q]

9. Is it preferable to check in the morning or evening?

In order to make a graph to help my doctor out, consistency is best. But if mornings are better than evenings, I will definitely switch times.

Thx!

10. Morning, you and the pump are at your most rested, even before you hit

the head.

[Deja Q]

18. This AM, before exercise: 129/70, pulse 60

After (3 mins after to be precise): 152/65, pulse 68

[sarge43]

19. Sounds good

If I may ask, how old are you?

5. Is that good?

I'm ashamed to admit, I have no idea what mine is.

7. You can check your pulse yourself.

Put two fingers on your inner wrist or neck right under the jawbone and just count the beats in a minute.

[mad-mommy]

15. relaxed is good...

[Deja Q]
