[|AI|]  Hello! Thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! Regarding your concern, I would explain that it is a very long time since that episodes. So, there is nothing to be afraid about the engine oil, as his symptoms are not related to this episode. Is he active? People who make a lot of physical activity, usually achieve lower heart rate, compared to the others. But, if he has shortness of breath, or fainting like episodes, I would recommend performing a cardiac ultrasound and an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring to exclude possible cardiac arrhythmia. Hope to have been helpful! Kind regards,
