I've been noticing that my heartbeat is a real problem for me. I get stressed really easily, and then I just find myself getting angry. Is there something I can do about this? Can stress and anger actually affect my heart rate like this? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

I'm a bit confused because I recently got a stress test done, and the results said it's negative for inducible ischemia during the TMT test. What does this really mean? Should I be worried or is this a good sign?

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

I'm a little concerned about my mom's recent chest x-ray report. It mentioned borderline cardiomegaly and she's been getting treatment for tuberculosis. What exactly does borderline cardiomegaly mean? Should we be worried about it? Is this a serious issue? If it is, can it be treated?

Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.
