I'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.

View allIm 52 and have a history of CAD. I went through bypass surgery back in 2004, and now my hearts at 35EF. Im currently doing a chelation treatment and am really wondering if this is the right move for me. Could you please explain if this treatment is beneficial or not?
Chelation therapy is a controversial treatment for heart disease. While some studies suggest that it may help reduce the buildup of plaques in the arteries, the overall evidence is not strong enough to recommend it as a standard treatment for CAD patients. It is important to note that chelation therapy also carries risks and side effects. In your case, as a CAD patient who has already undergone bypass surgery, it is crucial to follow the advice of your cardiologist. They are in the best position to assess your individual case and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan for you. It is important to continue taking any prescribed medications, such as antiplatelets, statins, and blood pressure medications, as these have been proven to reduce the risk of heart complications in CAD patients. If you have concerns about your current treatment plan or are considering chelation therapy, I recommend discussing this with your cardiologist to get personalized advice based on your medical history and current condition.

A consistently elevated pulse rate of 102 at rest and up to 134 during fever suggests an underlying issue, such as hyperthyroidism, anemia, anxiety or stress, dehydration, or an underlying infection or inflammation,
