Mornings Blood pressure= 120/65 pulse 55 (tred & sleepy)..
Afternoons blood pressure= 120/63 pulse 70 (feel fine)..

Is there a low limit guide for pulse rate??

55 may be a little too slow.

Would suggest you ask your doctor if it might be wise to back off the
metoprolol a bit.

You mention the aspirin. This is one of many similar articles.
Google NSAIDs and heart failure.
I'm not a doc, and don't pretend to be. It's just FYI.
