Can A Right Bundle Branch Block Cause Chest Pain?
Hi I was diagnosed with RBBB back in October 14. It was found by my pcp on a ekg. I then had an echo done for further testing. The echo only showed the rbbb, everything else was fine. I still have chest pains at times. I work outside and sometimes my chest will hurt. If tests show only a rbbb, is this pain normal? My pcp says it s nothing to worry about but I just want another opinion on the matter. My biggest concern is that I ll have a heart attack which they say I won t, etc.

Hello There
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that RBBB is a conduction pattern which is normal in most of the people you need not to worry about any heart attack. Chest pain can be there with gastritis also or anxiety .
Hopefully this information will guide you properly
Kind Regards
