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.

I'm a bit worried because for the past month I've been having this weird chest pain, mostly on the left side. It's also affecting my left hand, shoulder, and neck. I've already done a TMT, echo, and ECG but the reports all came back normal. I'm really confused about what's going on. Could you help me figure out what this might be?

When there is no cardiac issue that could be pleuritis or costochondritis no need to worry take rest and foolow your doctors advice.

I'm really worried because it feels like my heart is sinking or pausing, and I feel dizzy and confused, almost like I can't fully understand whats happening around me. I can hear and see things, but they dont make sense. My back and chest hurt too. I've had an echo and an MRI on my brain, and they both came back normal, and my bloodwork is fine as well. What could this be?

Your symptoms, including a sinking feeling in your chest, dizziness, confusion, and chest and back pain, despite normal echo, MRI, and blood work results, may be related to anxiety, panic disorder, or stress-induced cardiomyopathy; consider consulting a psychiatrist to explore these possibilities and discuss potential treatments, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), relaxation techniques, or medication to manage anxiety and alleviate symptom
