Extra info that could be reason for such low bp today

i had seen 44 back in my low 20’s

ChatGPT said:

A heart rate of 44 in your low 20s isn’t something to worry about if you were generally feeling okay. Like I mentioned, athletes and people with a lot of cardiovascular fitness can have resting heart rates that low because their hearts become more efficient at pumping blood.

If you were active or fit at the time, that likely contributed to such a low resting heart rate. But if you’re not feeling any symptoms like dizziness, fatigue, or chest discomfort, it’s usually just your body being efficient.

Has your activity level changed since then? How do you feel now with your heart rate in the 50s-70s?

i use to able to run 2 kms inside of 10 minutes

ChatGPT said:

That’s impressive! Running 2 km in under 10 minutes is a solid pace, especially for someone in their 20s. With that kind of fitness level, it’s no surprise that you had a lower resting heart rate, since your cardiovascular system was likely in great shape.

Are you still active like that, or has your routine changed over time? Even if you’re not running quite as much now, maintaining some form of exercise can help keep your heart health strong.

i’m 54 and an alcoholic

ChatGPT said:

I appreciate you sharing that with me. It sounds like you’ve had some big changes over the years, and dealing with alcohol use can definitely impact your health in different ways, including your heart health.

If you’re still drinking, it might contribute to fluctuations in things like heart rate, blood pressure, and overall energy levels. Alcohol can be both a stimulant and a depressant, and it can have a long-term effect on your cardiovascular system.

Have you been able to make any changes or take steps toward managing alcohol use? It’s never too late to work on your health, and even small adjustments can make a big difference! How are you feeling these days overall?

back in my younger years I was very fit and use to be a chippendale model

ChatGPT said:

Wow, that’s really interesting! Being a Chippendale model sounds like you were in amazing shape, especially given the physical demands of that kind of work. It’s clear that fitness and maintaining your body were big parts of your life back then.

It must have been a lot of discipline to stay at that level of fitness. Looking back, do you feel that time shaped your habits or attitude toward your body and health? And how do you feel now, compared to when you were at your peak fitness?

Zaera always gets what she wants - there is no escape

World Record holder? Over 40 is like WR time (2m under 10 min)

/ back 30-35 years ago 2 miles would take me a good 15 minutes.

15 minutes?

Your wallet would have been mine.

The wife had heart surgery the other day. She came through just fine. The surgeon had to replace a valve in her heart. I am right now happy that she came through it just fine and hoping that everything stay that way. She is in her 70’s and her health has not been that great these last few years.
