What's the suggested cause of the Bradycardia? Sometimes medications cause it, such as medications used to control the rate in Afib patients, or Certain Blood Pressure medications, etc. What has your doctor told you is the likely cause of your Bradycardia?

He hasn’t. I take Lisinopril 10mg and have for a few years. Here lately I have began to have a cold feeling In my feet and legs off an on as well

I ended up in the hospital with a heart rate of 24 2 years ago. They lost me once but got me back. Root cause of the bradycardia was apparently my thyroid. They gave me a pacemaker which only works less than 2% of the time. I'm very lucky. My heart rate has always been low, but it's stable now resting heart rate btw 52 and 62. My BP ranges from 84/52 to 107/64. Not sure why it runs low. Seems tied to whether I exercise or not. I'm 74, so I figure I'm doing ok, but still worry about my low BP. Any advice as to how to raise it?
