Can High Blood Pressure have something to do with being tense all the time? Sometimes I'll notice that my teeth are tight together, for no real major reason or my hands. It runs on one side of the family. I know I need to chill more sometimes:-) Kind of like a sideeffect?

I'm 16 and not overweight or anything. I just finished eating some KFC and my heart started beating really fast and LOUD-you could see my whole chest moving up and down. This lasted for like 8-10 minutes and then iIt suddenly stopped and went back to normal. This freaked me out. Oh and also during this weird thing, i was dizzy and had to lay down. Anyone know what the hell that was?

My dad is 58 years old. During a routine physcial he was noted to have abnormal cholesterol levels, borderline cardiomegaly, bradycardia, and calcified aorta. I work in a hospital as a transcriptionist and my mother works as a billing clerk there also. We are from a rural area in Texas and have no insurance and are on a limited income. I was just wondering if cardiologists will see patients that have no insurance?

Marfans Syndrome and Heart problems run on my side of the family and his Dad just had quad bypass 2 yrs ago, Dad was other wise healthy, thin, non smoker adn was only 50 yrs old. son also said he has a "racing" feeling sometimes when he is just sitting relaxing. Any info would be great, Thanks.
