Fear not: I don't know what type of heart block you have but any type can easily be handled in an operating room or delivery suite. You'll certainly be on a heart monitor which is standard procedure. No one dies of heart block in a hospital. (almost no one dies of heart block anywhere as it is rarely life-threatening. Nature steps in automatically with something called "escape rhythm".).
