Dear friend,

Thanks for posting your query on this website. I fully appreciate your concerns.

I must admit that anxiety is inherent and may persist throughout lifetime in a significant number of patients.

Daily Meditation can help you appreciably in overcoming or coping with anxiety.

Further, a transient rise in blood pressure does occur during acute anxiety attacks. But you need not take any treatment for BP.

I am confident that you will certainly benefit from the advice.

May I assure you that I am always available for your assistance and will try my best to cure your condition to the best of my experience and knowledge.

Please feel free to revert back to me in case of further clarifications, if any.

HAVE A NICE DAY AND A SPEEDY RECOVERY.

Fond Regards,

Dr.(Col) R Karanwal
