What Causes Irregular Heart Rate And Dizzy Spells?
I'm 33 years old with low blood pressure every time I get it checked. The low blood pressure has been going on for years. I just thought I normally have low blood pressure. It was 92/50 las time it was checked. I am 5'2" 165lbs. I gained 15lbs with my pregnancy. My delivery lasted 33 hours and was very stressful. I have loridosis, back pain, heat sensations in my left leg, chest pain and shortness of breath. I just recently went to get checked out by the doctor about dizzy spells and my heart stopping and rapidly starting back. I was diagnosed with RBBB. I'm really scared, because I can feel that my heart is not working like it should. I have a lot of stress with family matters and I would say since I was 13 I've had ongoing high anxiety. I know that is not healthy. What would you say are the reasons that I have RBBB.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Regarding your concern, I would like to know if the RBBB block is a new finding or it has been present in your previous ECG.
If you have not performed any ECG before, I would recommend performing some further tests:
- A cardiac ultrasound to examine your heart structure and function
- An ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring to investigate for possible cardiac arrhythmia
- Blood electrolytes for possible imbalances
- Thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
