Dx ist 2005;put on toprol; diagnosis 2014 lbbb now with decreased ef; could beta blocker have caused lbbb and now non ischemic cardiomyopathy? i feel it may

LBBB/Cardiomyopathy: The devil is in the details;LBBB in its own right can cause a reduction in ejection fraction,vice versa can also occur.Cardiomyopathy with reduced EF is best treated with betablockers,Please consult in detail with a competent cardiologist
