I have a diagnosis of a right bundle branch block in my heart. My doc said this is typically seen in folks after they have a heart attack, which I don’t think I have had. This diagnosis prompted lots of testing that shows no evidence of other cardiovascular disease (e.g., zero calcium score). My doc says developing RBBB without other CVD is unusual but that I “am not the only one like this”.
Apparently many people have a RBBB without significant symptoms and my doc’s current thinking seems to be that I may end up that way with time and exercise. Unfortunately I still have symptoms (light-headedness, near-fainting, fatigue) which have been getting better overall, but with some setbacks over the last several months.
I am asking any fellow ER-org-ERS if they have any experience, advice etc, to share.
