What Causes High Blood Pressure Along With Chest Pain And Dizziness?

Hello my name is Michael.. I just wanted to know what might be the cause of certain things that are happening. To start off I am a 27 he old male. I been to a Dr before an they said I had a very high blood pressure. It is hard for me to breathe while sleeping on my stomach. An at times when I sit down I have to take a few short breathes. An sometimes when I am sitting down I have sharp pains on the right side of my chest. An every now and then I get dizzy. An my appetite goes up and down every other day or so.

Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have high blood pressure along with chest pain and dizziness . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like angina , heart attack like condition . But in your case it is probably due to tortuous aorta . There are certain complication of unfolding and tortuous aorta like high blood pressure , feeling of pressure in chest , shortness or breath and pain in chest . I would suggest you to consult cardiologist for proper examination and treatment without any delay to prevent further complication . Doctor may order chest x-ray again , ECG , TMT and complete blood profile . Doctor may recommend surgery or balloon angioplasty . Doctor may also prescribe betablockers , frusemide , apirin and isosorbid nitrate .

Hope your concern has been resolved.
