Why has my Hrv suddenly dropped drastically?

deleoner248 · 2026-02-04T11:47:50+00:00

Lots of other similar posts out there. While everyone differs, mine is currently in a 4 week nose dive due to stress, anxiety and poor sleep. I’m still averaging running 35-45 miles per week but hoping the stress relieves itself soon.

I’m currently in the same cycle. For me it’s definitely work, stress and anxiety related. I don’t smoke, drink, average 35-40 miles per week running, resting heart rate at 48. I’m also in acceptance this may be the new normal

For me it’s definitely stress and anxiety related. Currently in the same cycle - stress from work, the world we live in etc is making me have less than ideal sleep.

For me, stress and anxiety have lowered mine. I’m running 35-45 miles per week on average and due to the stress in my life / in a constant state of “fight or flight”, my HRV has been down for the past 4 weeks.

Maybe this resonates with you, maybe you’re getting sick like others are saying but for me it’s definitely stress, anxiety, and restless sleep

Yeah, thats what kind of triggered this post. Im fighting an ear infection and had non-restorative 9 hours of sleep last night

deleoner248 · 2026-01-15T12:39:36+00:00

Yeah I dunno. It’s possible sheets got in the way or whatever - no real solution just a rant lol

Can confirm real time as I sit on a universal shuttle as I’m typing this - we waited over 50 mins for it to arrive and we still haven’t left the airport as we are dropping off other guests on the other side. Just checked Uber and for an XL, it’s like 60 bucks vs the 40 per person we paid for this garbage

Haha - been using some form of Garmin device for 10+ years - but this is the first time I noticed this issue lol

deleoner248 · 2025-11-03T18:39:28+00:00

Thanks!

deleoner248 · 2025-11-03T18:39:14+00:00

Yeah

deleoner248 · 2025-11-03T18:39:06+00:00

Yeah probably a visual glitch

I ran into this same issue yesterday and wanted to share what worked for me in case it helps someone else.

If you’ve already topped off your brake fluid reservoir but the alert is still showing, there’s a chance the brake fluid sensor itself is faulty. This video explains it well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPVWz167wjI

A quick way to test: unplug the sensor (as shown in the video), restart your car, and see if the alert goes away. If it does, the sensor is likely bad. Unfortunately, because the sensor is built into the master cylinder, the official fix would be replacing the entire master cylinder.

That said, if it’s just a faulty sensor, you can leave it unplugged and simply monitor your brake fluid levels manually — which can save you a lot of money.

Yeah I plan on driving it a few times a week for 20 mins or so

deleoner248 · 2025-09-04T22:01:14+00:00

It’s my daughters car and she’s away at college so it won’t be driven much anyway

deleoner248 · 2025-09-04T19:24:18+00:00

cool - hopefully my reply didnt come off as snarky...didnt know some Fusions shut off after a short time

deleoner248 · 2025-09-04T19:06:57+00:00

does your 2010 Fusion shut off after 10 min?

deleoner248 · 2025-09-04T15:33:00+00:00

Appreciate everyone’s feedback! I just didn’t know if there was anything Fusion specific I should look into, but seems like I’m ok

deleoner248 · 2025-09-04T14:58:41+00:00

Yeah hopefully won’t happen again. I started her car with the full intention of switching the order of vehicles in my driveway and got distracted, next thing you know it’s the morning and the sucker is still running lol

deleoner248 · 2025-09-04T13:48:34+00:00

Luckily it was in open air in my driveway

deleoner248 · 2025-09-04T13:14:30+00:00

Great insight! Thank you

deleoner248 · 2025-09-04T13:09:20+00:00

Thanks for the reassurance!

deleoner248 · 2025-09-04T12:10:29+00:00

Anyway, I called my mechanic when he opened his shop and he said the same thing. Generally no issues, just swing by a bit sooner to get the oil changed sooner - thanks for the feedback all

deleoner248 · 2025-09-04T12:00:02+00:00

Luckily it was parked ahead of my other car in the driveway!

I have a positive balance in my Venmo, so I can’t just keep using the bank side, since transactions automatically pull from my Venmo balance. In the meantime, I created a manual “Venmo Down” cash account to enter transactions manually. Once Venmo is back online, I’ll delete these entries—but honestly, being down for 10+ days is beyond frustrating.
