|
| i went to the doctor and my heart rate and 48 so they sent me to the hospital for a EKG and i have a small small leak in my left aortic valve but he said its nothing to worry about everyone has a small one usually and then he said that the heart monitor they hooked me up to for 24 hours showed that at 5:30 pm my heart rate dropped to 38 and and 2:30 am it went to 138 (who knows a very good dream maybe lol) so what should my heart rate be for my age im 15 about 5'10 and weight 124 pounds and run two miles every day. |

| The average rate for a 15 year old would be about 80 beats a minute. since you are a runner presumably with good stamina it doesn't suprise me that your heart rate is lower than average.The stronger the heart is, the less often it would need to beat. also 124 pound on a 5'10 frame sounds very lean, with no extra pounds giving your heart strain it doesn't need.since your doctor doesn't sound worried, I would say you are in good shape and would continue what I was doing if I was in your shoes. |
