Is Left Ventricular Hyperthrophy reversible.....and is Right Bundle Branch Block reversible .If blood pressure is lowered and controlled can the above condition be reversed. Pulmonary Embolism has been ruled out. Also want to know of suggestions about how to lower blood pressure without blood pressure pills.

As the nurse above said, no and no. The toast is burnt...no real undoing it, surgery or not. As far as blood pressure control without medication...there are rare individuals who loose a great deal of weight and start vigorously exercising daily and eat a strict diet that can affect enough of a change to make a difference. I emphasize this is the very rare individual...I've seen it twice out of thousands of patients.
Blood pressure control is key to helping the circumstances you describe - so now is not the time to get resistant about taking medication. Take the medication and if you can make the changes...the medications can be stopped, then.
Other things can contribute to LVH
-arrhythmia
-CAD
-Obstructive sleep apnea
-valvular malfunction
-poorly controlled blood pressure
Fixing any secondary cause will help substanially too.
Good luck.

No and no.
Once your heart is enlarged, it doesn't go back to normal. A right bundle branch block is benign and someone can live a productive life with it.
If this person has these problems, blood pressure medicines might be the only choice along with dietary changes and exercise.
If the left side of the heart is enlarged (depending on how bad it is), the heart has a difficult time pumping the blood. Left sided heart problems causes issues with the lungs, such as congestion and or pulmonary edema.
Just be careful. Watch the salt intake.
Best wishes.

My husband and my daughter and his father and his sister and his brother all have right bundle branch blockage . the ages are 85, 80, and 70.(and 45) so I don't think you should worry much about that. It isn't reversible without surgery more dangerous than the condition.The other, I can't help you.

LBBB shouldn't confuse with VT.using fact in LBBB the impulse is supper ventricle and could tutor P WAVE and VT impulse is initiate in ventricle and could no longer see P wave(or hide via V interest)VT is quickly rhyme and LBBB isn't,till SVTC.the two has widen QRS complicated(greater then 0.one million 2d) and might have ST replace.LBBB is as a results of the pathway flow to L ventricle is block(using degeneration or injury for the time of MI).The impulse attain to L ventricle is lots postpone and effect of normal EKG.it extremely is tremendously consumer-friendly using arteriosclerosis of the midsection.Blockage of the artery and blockage of the pathway is two component yet might appropriate.rigidity try beneficial for ASHD is ST replace whilst in workout that propose no longer adequate oxygen to furnish to the midsection muscle groups.particular, on account that beneficial ASHD and LBBB the two tutor ST replace some time might differcult to make the diagnosis.
