I'm curious about how risky it is to take a small amount of MDMA if I have right bundle branch block. I've used MDMA a lot before but just learned about my RBBB. Can you give me some advice on that?

Right Bundle Branch Block (RBBB) typically indicates a delay in the electrical conduction system of the heart but may not cause symptoms or require treatment in many cases. However, using substances like MDMA can pose significant cardiovascular risks, including increased heart rate, blood pressure, and potential arrhythmias, which can be particularly concerning for individuals with underlying heart conditions like RBBB. Combining MDMA with RBBB could exacerbate the risk of serious heart-related complications. It is crucial to discuss this with your healthcare provider to understand the specific risks based on your individual health status.

I've been struggling with this issue for about two years now, and I'm really hoping for some insight. I'm a 27-year-old I.T. professional and this all started with sudden bouts of dizziness and sweating. I've gone through all the usual tests, like MRI and blood work, and the only thing that came up was a low B12 level at 83. Over time, I've begun feeling detached, and my doctor mentioned it might be anxiety. The problem hasnt gone away though, and now I sometimes experience fluttering, dizziness, and vomiting. It feels like I might faint, but I never actually do. I've had TMT and ECG tests twice, and both were normal. I worry it could be some kind of arrhythmia, but during these episodes, my heart rate seems stable with no major changes. It's confusing because these episodes don't seem linked to stress and only last a few seconds. I'm really anxious about this and just looking for a professional perspective on what's happening.

Question

I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure. I checked it in the evening, and it was 146 over 93. Is this normal? I'm 25 years old and weigh 86 kg. Do you think I should be concerned about this reading?
