I'm experiencing it, at first I just feel weird why my heart rate is slower it's always below 70 and if I rest it's below 50, and I always feel out of breath the oxygen value is also always below 97% I look for sources on the internet and sulk that maybe I have a problem with thyroid hormones, such as hypothyroidism, I went to the doctor and my thyroid blood test results were normal but the ultrasound results had nodules and I did FNA the results were malignant, the doctor said I had to have surgery, then is this also the cause of slow heartbeat ?

I have issues with slower heart rate of 55/56 with weakness in legs, arms, neck. with sob as well. I have nodules and cysts that I am due to see the endocrinologist soon to discuss it. I am to get a follow up sonogram in 11/23. I thought too that the low pulse (when normally I’m in the 80s-90s +. It was disturbing and alarming. I saw cardiologist yesterday. I’m wearing a halter monitor for 15 days and will have an echo in early-mid July. He did blood work. Some high some low but nothing super high or low. I have nodules and cysts under 1cm. So they watch and wait. I trust my cardiologist. He’s tops. So, he’s looking to rule out PAF and another thing I don’t recall. I see the endo soon. I will let you know what I find when they do. I hope you are feeling better. My heart rate fluctuated from mid 50’s to waking up with 136. My blood pressure readings also variable. Night and normal to lower.
If I were you I would call the doctor who is evaluating and treating your thyroid and ask them. To see if you should see a cardiologist. Do you have a history of high blood pressure?
