I have been given Propranolol after being diagnosed as having SVT but my resting heart rate is now dropping to around 54bpm is that ok?

    54 is not to bad

    My EP tells me its fine as long as you do not have any symptoms

    In addition to the lower resting heart rate, have you found the Propranolol to be helpful in stopping or preventing SVT episodes? I was offered it as an option, but curious to hear if it is worth taking.
