I was seen for the diagnosis of a hyperthyroid which is under control now-thanks-Www@Answer-Health@Com

I am a paramedic and the block you have is very common in a lot of people!. The ER did not tell you about this because there is usually no medication or procedure to cure it!. Your health is not affected by it!. It is a disruption in the electricel (block) system that assists the heart in beating!.

It would be a good idea to see a cardiologist!. It may mean nothing but it's best to be checked!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
