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 feeling a bit confused and worried because I recently had some tests done. My TMT came back mildly positive, but my CT angiography, ECG, and echocardiogram all showed normal results. What could be the main reason for the TMT result? Could there be other factors affecting it? I'd really appreciate some clarity on this.
TMT (Treadmill Test) showing mildly positive results could indicate a possibility of coronary artery disease. However, since the CT angiography, ECG, and echocardiogram are all normal, other factors could be contributing to the mildly positive TMT result. These factors may include false-positive results, underlying medical conditions such as hypertension, or medication interference. To address the mildly positive TMT result and rule out any potential issues, your doctor may recommend lifestyle modifications, such as regular exercise, a healthy diet, and stress management. In some cases, medication like aspirin or statins may be prescribed to manage the risk factors for heart disease. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is important to monitor your heart health.
