You're probably correct about it being a non-problem, but it's easier said than done about not worrying. I do feel better about it after some of the responses. However, when you have asthma, as I do, you tend to notice breathing and heart issues a little more.

Unless you've forgotton your Albuterol inhaler and have spent 2 hours laying in a field at the side of the road trying to get your breath back it's probably difficult to understand what the worry is. When my HR doesn't go down quickly enough, I also have a little trouble breathing.

BTW, my heart rate was 41 this morning, so it couldn't hurt to increase it a little bit.
