What causes high blood pressure and cholesterol?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Cholesterol plaque and calcium cause your arteries to become hard and narrow. Hence, its puts strain in the walls to pump blood through them. As a result, your blood pressure becomes too high. High blood pressure and high cholesterol are two of the biggest causes of heart disease

Take a Anti-Nmo (Neuromyelitis Optica ) Antibody / Aquaporin 4 Test or Take a CD2 (Pan T Cell Marker) Test

View allRespected doctor, my 53 year old mother experienced high blood pressure today at 150/105, with a previous reading of 170/120 accompanied by headaches and a mild fever on August 2nd. She was doing well until now. Our entire family showed COVID symptoms in early August, and I tested positive, but we have since recovered. I am concerned about why her blood pressure is still high nearly a month later. She is currently taking Telsite 40 mg after breakfast. A 2D echo done a year ago showed excellent heart health. Our family doctor has advised doubling her Telsite dose to one tablet in the morning and one after lunch. I am seeking a second, honest opinion regarding this advice. I have attached her latest blood report taken on the day she had high BP and severe headache. Thank you and God bless.
