anxiety disorder blood pressure

I have high blood pressure which is controlled by medication. Does anyone else have this disorder and what causes it?

re having some trouble with your blood pressure. I agree with your physician that 156/66 is too high. Your blood pressure should be below 130/80, with lower being even better if tolerated. Many things contribute to high blood pressure including age, genetics, weight, diet, exercise. It sounds like you're on the right track with your exercise. Aggressive diet and exercise can often get patients off of their medications altogether, especially if couple with weight loss.

I call my Cardiologist again, complaint about my blood pressure, he said to stop the Inderal cause he said my blood pressure was too low for me, so for now I have nothing to stop the Tachycardia I still have very often especially in the morning...

My question is, one day at the OB/GYN I felt anxious for no reason at all, kind of like a panic attack randomly, and my blood pressure was 144/110....with this my hands were clammy and I felt anxious, thats about it. That prompted me to go to my internst who took my blood pressure and found it a little on the high side, i can't remember the amount but it was about 130s/90s.

Anxiety can cause the blood pressure to increase. Were you feeling anxious at the dentist? Or anxious about getting your blood pressure? You really are fine. It's your anxiety you need to focus on. Ever try therapy? Also, chest pain and anxiety go hand in hand. You know it's not your heart because you've had multiple tests done.

thanks for your reply, but what treatment could i ask for as i dont suffer with high blood pressure. I was led to believe that it was part of my anxiety disorder.

When im on xanax it actully drops in to the 90s or high 80s i think it might be my anxiety/panic disorder but is this all possible? My blood pressure is a lil high on average around 130/85 usually around that area thoughts??? Thank you for replying.

hiya i suffer from severe health anxiety surrounding my heart, i just wondered if anyone can help me with a question? if you have a mild or major heart attack how would your blood pressure be high, low or normal?

I have suffered from anxiety in the past, however, I have quit my medication (lexapro) about 8 months ago, and after the first 1-2 months, my anxiety completely disappeared. 8 months ago my heart rate was around 65bpm, and my blood pressure around 135/80. Nowadays, my heart rate is around 80-85bpm resting, and my BP around 145/90. I have in the past tested my thyroid function (no problems), did several ECGs, one echo, as well as tests to check cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

Take slow deep breaths. It is possible to have spikes in blood pressure without having high blood pressure.

if you was having a heart attack would your blood pressure be high, low or just normal?

Its deficiency can result in Obesity, Type 2 Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, Depression, Psoriasis, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Kidney Stones, Osteoporosis, & Neuro-degenerative disease including Alzheimer’s Disease. Hope this helps.

I would personally look into the natural ways of doing this, at least research them, as medication for high blood pressure, as with so much medication, can have consequences that are as bad as the high blood pressure, such as pulmonary problems. Again, as always, we have to do our homework and then make a choice.

I know how it feels to have anxiety about blood pressure only with me I get anxiety about it being too low. My BP has always been on the low side of normal. Usually around 105-110 over 70-80. Sometimes though it goes lower like I just checked it now and it's 96/61 (probably because I haven't been up and moving around) but when it drops this low I start to get panicky because that seems too low but I've read Drs.

i hav ean issue with my blood pressure which is anxiety and stress related? does anyone else have problems wiyh there bp ? i have an appointment with the midwife tomorrow and the thought of it has got me pulse racing already!!

I did a check on my mothers how machine which is an electronic one, after I ate breakfast. It was 98/56. That seems low. I thought that I only suffered from an anxiety disorder, but after this reading I'm not sure. Maybe the reason I feel bad is because my BP is so low? I know that I do feel tired and light headed. But I don't want to overthink this because I do have an anxiety problem and I always think everything is wrong with me.

I'm 20 years old and had anxiety for years but only the physical symptom's for around 3. Over the past few months or so i've noticed my body is extremely sensitive to my stress level's - even the smallest amount. Whenever i start feeling stressed i get all sorts of problems, i can feel my whole body tense up, i get palpitation's, dizzy spell's, my eye's start feeling strained, i get tingle's all over my body and a bad headache.

Well any sort of cramping can definitely cause anxiety. Your blood pressure seems a little high on average and it is probably a good idea to talk to your doctor about starting on a blood pressure lowering medication.

Have you been anxious over anything lately, or in pain? My blood pressure was about 167/114 without my meds. After an injury to my upper arm my blood pressure went way up due to the pain. Let me know what it reads today.

but do any of you constantly check your blood pressure and heart rate..i woke up this morning and my blood prssure was 90/70 and heartrate was 111 i felt kinda week....its gone up now but sometimes it goes high like 140/86...then it goes normal it scares me....my heart rate goes up cause im on adderall and my anxiety gets so bad and im on prozac..been on prozac two months and i cant tell it doing much neither is the adderall......

I've been diagnosed with PAT...disorder of heart, and have sleep apena..and high pressure.... I recently have had horrifying events waking up with 130 pluse, 165/115 BP...almost immediately I will start gerding up what food I ate at eveing meal or at nite...this is very scary..the event is all over in 10 to 15 min ...bp back down to normal...I am on 2 bp medications....240 mg of diltiazem once day, and lisinopril 40 mg a day.. I'm wondering if I need to see a Gastro Dr..and a Heart dr?

Hi, If your all the medical reports and clinical examination came back normal, then it is most likely that your symptoms could be due to anxiety or panic disorder. You may experience all symptoms even without presence of any disorder. You need to consult a psychologist along with a psychiatrist to get a better insight of the situation. Hope it helps.

There is a lot of disagreement about blood pressure norms. Years ago I worked on the NDA for calcium channel blockers and the literature showed about 18 percents of people with elevated blood pressure returned to normal with calcium and D3 supplements. Chest pain from having ribs broken takes a long time to resolve. My broken ribs took three years before i stopped feeling pain.

So I had a recent doctors visit back in May and my blood pressure was 120/80. Not too shabby. At this point I didnt even know what blood pressure was but I knew mine was good. However now that I knew what BP was I, being anxious about my health, wanted to learn more. So a month later I (and lots of anxious research later) I found a supermarket BP machine and got a reading of 137/80. Noticibly higher.
