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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.
