DH (mid 40s, quite fit, but not elite/Olympic level!) has always had a low resting heart rate, but recently had got himself a Garmin watch with heart rate monitor, and it's worrying me how low it actually goes. It's low 40s on average, but quite often goes to low 30s. The other night he watched it dip to 29(!) and even he thought that was a bit concerning.
He went to the GP, and had some blood tests and an ECG, all of which came back normal. He doesn't have any other worrying symptoms (fainting etc). He's having a follow up appointment with the GP tomorrow, and I'm wondering how hard he should push for further tests (he's a v chilled out person, and would happily be "fobbed off").
