Tried every blocker. Every test on lungs, kidney, heart and no issue. Chronic hypertension and palpitations

What are your readings?

Have you kept a log at home? The reason I ask is it's a good idea to take your machine to your drs office to make sure your machine is working correctly.

If this were me I would a 2nd opinion. What are the drs saying the cause of this is? Do you suffer with any anxiety symptoms by chance?

No anxiety issues at all. My GP suggests an endocrinologist might be able to help. Ridiculous that two docs and numerous tests show nothing but palpitations and hypertension persist.

I hope you can get approved to see the endo, it sure wouldn't hurt.

Keep us posted & good luck.
