Topics:low pulse

I've been under cardio care for about 5 yrs for arterial fib.  taking sotalol and digoxin to keep that in check.  still goes out of rythem but for shorter time periods.  however my pulse keeps dropping to around 50 and makes me feel terrible; short of breath, dizzy, roller coaster stomach.  this is getting really old.  dr.s don't seem to be concern but this can't be normal.  worries me to death.  i think i'm going to die and my heart is just going to stop.  driving my wife crazy too.  help calm my fears and i take my pulse for the 5th time this morning.
