I'm really worried about my blood pressure which is at 13095I've already seen my physician and done a ton of tests like LFT, KFT, and a whole body USG with a renal artery Doppler. Everything came back normal, but they mentioned it's rising for unexplained reasons. Can anyone shed some light on why this might be happening?

Given that all tests are normal, your physician may consider your high blood pressure (13095) as "essential hypertension" or "idiopathic hypertension," meaning it has no identifiable cause, and recommend lifestyle changes, such as regular exercise, a balanced diet, stress reduction, and adequate sleep, along with possible medication to manage and control your blood pressure

View allI'm curious about why my blood pressure spikes to 180100 during times of aggression, while it's usually around 11080 or 12080 when I'm calm. I don't have diabetes or thyroid issues, and my echo, ECG, and TMT results are normal. My lipid profile shows LDL at 60, HDL at 37, and total cholesterol at 110. Is there any underlying pathological condition that could be causing these blood pressure fluctuations?
Aggression or stress can indeed cause a temporary spike in blood pressure. Since your heart tests and lipid profile are normal, the elevated blood pressure may be due to situational factors. However, it is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consider lifestyle modifications. In case of persistent high blood pressure, your doctor may prescribe medications like Amlodipine 5mg or Losartan 50mg to help keep it under control.

Fatigue and headache are not specific symptoms of a heart attack. However, it is important to pay attention to any unusual symptoms you may be experiencing. Fatigue and headache can be caused by various factors such as stress, lack of sleep, dehydration, or underlying medical conditions. It is recommended to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.
