Hello
Sometimes high blood pressure develops fullness in epigastrium region and patient feels pain and fullness in abdomen .
In your husband case as doctor told that there is thick blood means lipid profile are elevated .
This is known as high cholesterol level and this is dangerous , if untreated .
But one thing is very nice that E K G is normal , so at present need not to worry.
However this is concerning . Consult a Cardiologist and get his opinion .
When such patient visit in my clinic I advise them change their life style and also change dietary habit .
Regular exercise either walking ( morning or evening for 1/2 hour ) .
Avoid fried , greasy , oily food , also avoid alcohol , smoking.
In my opinion consult a cardiologist and get his opinion.
Good luck.
