What Is Sick Sinus Syndrome?
7. Fatigue
In addition to abnormal heart rhythms, sick sinus syndrome also comes with some other unwelcome symptoms. One of these symptoms is fatigue. The blood that is pumped around our body by our heart is full of oxygen that our cells need for part of the metabolic process. This means creating energy and without the oxygen, our body struggles to generate the energy that it needs.
This, in turn, means that we end up feeling fatigued no matter how much we eat and how much rest we get. If fatigue persists then you should arrange to speak with a doctor regardless of the suspected cause.
