I recently had a blood pressure reading of 140 over 100 and my doctor prescribed some medication. Later, I went through an echo and it turned out I have high anxiety.

However, it is important to follow your doctor's recommendations and continue with any prescribed medications for both anxiety and high blood pressure to effectively manage both conditions.
