Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
After going through your medical details I understand your concern for your health and I would like to tell you that bundle branch block can be normal if you are not experiencing any symptoms but can be indicative of heart disease if you are getting chest discomfort or breathing difficulties which may require further evaluation.
Being diabetic and hypertensive you are at higher risk to develop heart disease than a healthy person, so it’s recommended for you to follow your physician’s advice and get a basic cardiac evaluation done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
