Question

I was lying down after dinner tonight and started to notice this pulsating feeling in my left upper stomach area, just below the rib cage. I'm taking blood pressure meds, so I'm a bit worried. Is this something I should be concerned about? What might be causing it?

Question

I'm really worried about my blood pressure. Are there any known cases of curing essential hypertension? It seems like my sympathetic nervous system is always in overdrive, causing my body to jump into fight or flight mode for no reason. There's no sign of any tumors on my pituitary or adrenal glands, and all my blood tests and ECGs have come back normal. Is it possible to permanently fix this by getting my sympathetic nervous system back to normal?
