Does severe stress cause a heart attack?
human
I had a heart attack two and a half months after being rear-ended in my car. My blood pressure at the hospital was 199 over 93. Since then until my pericardiocentesis my daily BP was anywhere from 150 over 87 to 167 over91. I stressed over losing my car which I believe was a cause of my heart event. Is this possible? I had two friends who died following rear-end collisions, hence my question, Thank you. Ross Janes YYYY@YYYY

Hello,I would like to tell you how our body works each and every organ is governed by the brain which works on two things physiology and psychology so if anyone elements get disturbed everything gets disturbed so there is a chance that your heart attack could be due to this reason, but this single cause could not cause the entire list of event. In your case, some other problems like infection, or inflammation should be present, as you also required pericardial taping. So as per my knowledge, you are facing some infection of the pericardium which is causing all these events.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards, Dr. Medhavi Agarwal
