Low Pulse Rate 41 bpm (Age: 67/M)
Hi Doctors, My father aged 67 was feeling mild giddiness (only for a minute) when he stood up from sitting position. We went to doctor near by and he asked us to take up 2D Echo and RFT tests. Both the tests gave normal results. However, he told us to go for Angiogram to identify any blockages.
Please advise as we are still doubtful whether to take up the angiogram test even after the 2d echo results are normal.
