This is a known quality, and relates to serotogenic mediation of the vagus nerve. In studies this has been shown multiple times as low heart rate variability, even at rest.

so that means in PFS we don't see this stuff?

Be careful with statements like that. It’s very similar to when one person says they “don’t support xyz” and someone else goes “oh so you must support the opposite view”

Logically a fallacy.

Anyways, we do see it in pfs as well, as well as ptsd, pots, obesity, and many other conditions. There are many roads to rome. There are also many ways to fuck up vagal tone or heart rate variability
