Welcome to Healthcare magic. Thank you for posting your query. I can understand your concern.
The term "bifascicular block" refers to a block of any two of the three fascicles. Clearly, this should include LBBB (left anterior + left posterior) In LBBB, the interventricular septum (wall separating left and right chambers) is activated normally, and the electrical impulses travel rapidly down the right bundle branch to activate the right ventricle. But because the left bundle branch is blocked, the impulse then must cross the interventricular septum to activate the left ventricle after a short delay. Can cause skipped beats, etc. Not an uncommon event and considered harmless, but can be serious depending on circumstances.
I would suggest you to not panic. Keep in touch with your cardiologist. It would have been great had I examined your mother on my own. This being a public forum question , I couldn't get access to the attachments.
SHe may need a single chamber pacemaker only.
