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 allI'm worried that my anxiety might be causing my blood pressure to increase. Its been six months, and while I dont feel as anxious now, I still feel a strong pulse all overchest, fingers, head, neck, legs, everywhere. Its really affecting my life! Ive tried everythingeating better, exercising, meditatingand nothing helps. My blood pressure and pulse are still the same. I even tried magnesium, but no change. I'm really scared about the side effects of anxiety and blood pressure meds. If this is anxiety, how long will it take to go away? What should I do?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety that are affecting your blood pressure and pulse. To help manage these symptoms, you can try taking Propranolol (Inderal) at a low dose of 10-20mg once or twice daily. Propranolol is a beta-blocker that can help reduce the physical symptoms of anxiety such as a bounding pulse. Additionally, for anxiety relief, you can consider taking Escitalopram (Lexapro) at a dose of 10mg daily. Escitalopram is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) that can help alleviate anxiety symptoms. It is important to note that the duration for anxiety to be cured varies from person to person. With medication and therapy, many individuals see improvement in their symptoms within a few weeks to a few months. It is recommended to continue with the prescribed treatment plan and follow up with your healthcare provider for monitoring and adjustments as needed.

I've been taking cardace 2.5 mg after consulting with Dr. Anand Chopda on August 17th. I've been monitoring my readings every morning before taking the tablet, and they are as follows: Aug 19 - 11277, Aug 20 - 11888, Aug 21 - 11883, Aug 22 - 13385, Aug 23 - 13195, Aug 24 - 12693, Aug 25 - 11773. Should I keep taking the cardace at this dosage, or is there a need for adjustment? I'm a bit concerned about these numbers. Any advice on this?
Based on the readings you have provided, it seems like your blood pressure has been fluctuating. However, it is important to note that a single reading may not provide a complete picture.

I've got my ECG results, and it mentions left axis deviation and early repolarization. I'm 21 and male, and I'm really confused about what this means for my health. Should I be worried about being medically unfit? What should I do next?
You should show your ECG report to a physician to get a clearer picture of your condition. Left axis deviation can be seen in various conditions, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, left bundle branch block and even inferior wall myocardial infarction. Early repolarisation refers to ST segment elevation with no underlying cause.
