Is it normal for my heart rate to be 45 bpm and for me to have difficulty breathing at night? (I am 16 years old)

Hello Ma'am,
How long have you noticed that your heart rate is at 45 bpm? And with what instrument did you measure your heart rate?

For months it's been like this. And it's beating so hard that I timed a minute on my phone and counted the beats in my head.

oh!"
In such a case, I am of the opinion that it might be better advised to consult a doctor, indeed. At your age, the risk of it being serious is very slim, but it's best not to take any chances.
As the pandemic is causing great challenges at the doctor's office, perhaps you could try services such as Hello Health or Maple if your doctor can't see you within a week.
I'm sorry I can't help you further at this time.
Good day,
Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist
