Mild BP, Severe Stress, Get Tensed Easily, Erectile Dysfunction Occasionally, Concentration Problems. Will This Lead To Heart Issues?
i am 29 and is having slight blood pressure . My pulse rate varies from 70-90. My biggest problem is stress . I get easily tensed even on silly matters. I also sometimes feel that I have erective disfunction. But sometimes I get proper errection also. I always feel my pulse rate is high. I cannot sleep fully. some week ago I had an ECG . In that my doctor said that there is nothing in particular except minor case of blood pressure. But I cannot concentrate on anything. After getting tensed for a few time I again get tensed fearing that tension causes heart problems
Hello.........
The symptoms you report of perception of inadequate erection, perception of poor quality of sleep, difficulty in attention and concentration and preoccupation that tension might result in heart problems are all signs of underlying anxiety disorder- could be generalised anxiety disorder or other unspecified anxiety disorders. As preliminary routine,, you can try breathing relaxation exercises, meditation techniques. In case you are unable to find relief, an in-person consultation is encouraged and psychiatrist like us may consider anti-anxiety agents, bio-feedback and other psychotherapy techniques to reduce your anxiety. Wish you speed recovery.
Thanks
Hello this is DR ARPAN ,
You pulse rate is with in normal limits and you have not mentioned the any exact recording of your blood pressure. But as per your own description of "slight" i can consider it as with in the range of normalcy.
Your erectile dysfunction may be due to hypertension but seems to be more of psychogenic ,as its normal some times too with out any reason.
Ecg is also found to be normal.
So, i can consider as perfomance anxiety as you are also having some features of mild depression.
Idealy you should consult to your nearby psychiatrist for that. I can advice you tab- Nexito(Escitalopram) 10mg one tablet bed time. it will surely benefit you.
