What Causes RBBB While Suffering From Sinus Bradycardia?
Hello
I have been taking phentermine on and off for the last ten years. Lately more on than off. I used to smoke marijuana while on the phentermine. 1 year ago which was 1year postpartum from my beautiful angel I was told i had sinus bradycardia. I seen my Dr and come to find out i had hypothyroid. After taking thyroid meds for 6 months the Dr retested my thyroid which was better and repeated EKG and it showed rbbb. I feel fine but i want to know what could have caused this. I never had abnormal ekg's before this. I'm without health insurance so i just see a general dr and I am curious to how one just develops rbbb

Hello There
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that RBBB is conduction circuit which can be there from birth or after a heart attack . Bradycardia can be related and is recommended for you to get an echocardiography done and consult a physician with reports for further management.
Hopefully this information will guide you properly.
Kind Regards
