Bradycardia

Bradycardia

I have Left total bundle block,and pass out a lot. This dianosis was confirmed by a cardiologist up north.He said that the 100% left branch bundle block was not serious.He also gave me many nuclear tests which just confirmed the diagnosis.I can no longer sing as I am a first soprano which takes a lot of oxygen.I faint when I sing,so have stopped doing what I love to do.My heart hurts also when I over do it.I am dizzy a lot.
Is the left branch bundle block worse then the right side? People who have it are telling me it is worse,and I need confirmation about this.I am from Canada and my insurance doesn't cover this.Is this a serious condition and do you recommend I return home immediately.I was to retun end of April.Can this wait,or should It be taken care of with immediate pacemaker.I remain confused about how serious a condition this is.Can you advise me what to do?
I have had three EKG's which were all abnormal and showed the Bradycardia and slow heart beat.I also have spells of heart pain,more like anaching sensation,and continued dizziness.Is this serious?
Thank you for a reply Shell lady 403

I have RBBB and was told it wasn't as serious as LBBB, so my guess is yes it is more serious, but I'm not a dr and can only go by what my dr's said.

What you can do is go to the heart disease expert forum and try to get a question in to the dr's forum so they can answer and direct you what to do or where to go.

I had a pacemaker implanted for my bradycardia, which when set the right rate stopped my fainting, but it took a few tries getting the settings right.
