A related discussion, atrial septal aneursym was started.
plz help,
may i respectfully suggest that, as the doctor suggested, you take a deep breath, relax, and take your caps lock off. i am 29 and i also have a frustrating medical condition but i have learned that panicking doesn't help (i used to run to the ER alot). while i don't have any suggestions related to your specific medical condition, i highly agree that you need to get that BP down, has your doctor put you on a beta blocker or diuretic?

Essential hypertension is hypertension most likely due to your genetic predisposition. Renal stenosis and coartation are 2 causes of early onset hypertension. You can discuss the possibilites of those conditions with your doctor.

I would look more into investigating your underlying anxiety. Your use of CAPs and your focus on this condition suggest that it may be playing a factor. All of the symptoms you mention are nonspecific, have no correlation with an septal aneurysm and can all be associated with anxiety.
SHOULD I WATCH WHAT I DO WITH THIS ANEURYSM?
No. You should strive to lead a active healthy lifestyle.

Write your questions down or type them out before you go to see your physician. There is questionable increased risk of stroke with aneurysm with PFO. Without PFO this risk is not marked and without other indications for anticoagulation, primary prophylaxis is not recommended. A septal anurysm is a structural finding that is not associated with symptomatic sequlae.
good luck
