Hi,
It is very common to have right bundle branch block but if asymptomatic does not need any treatment. If bradycardia associated with syncope or fibrillation, then yes, treatment is required. In your case severe bradycardia may be the cause for embolism. Chief cause of this myocardial ischaemia which needs to be ruled out by angiography.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
