I'm really worried about my incomplete RBBB turning into a complete RBBB in the future. Are there treatments like an angiogram or angioplasty that can help prevent this from happening? Is there any way to make my RBBB go back to normal, like it was before, so there's no block at all?

View allI'm really concerned because I have a history of minoxidil poisoning and now I'm experiencing chest pain even when I'm just resting. I also feel like my heart starts beating really fast out of nowhere, like palpitations. I don't have a smoking history, so I'm not sure what's causing this. Could this be related to the past poisoning, or should I be worried about something else?
Getting chest pain while resting and palpitations like symptoms can be concerning. It is important to seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, you can take aspirin 325mg for chest pain as it can help with heart-related issues. Please do not delay in seeking medical help.

I'm really concerned because my heart beat rate has been around 100-110 bpm throughout the day, but when I'm resting, like right after I wake up, it's at 80 bpm. Are these numbers something I should be worried about? Ive had an ECG treadmill test and an electrolyte test, and my doctor said they were all normal. I'm still worried, so what should I do about this high heart rate?

Which arm to measure blood pressure right or left?
Both the arms can be used for BP measurement and sometimes, your doctor might take two readings from two arms to check for any variations too. Generally, it's best to take your blood pressure from your left arm if you are right-handed.
