There is no such thing. HTN specialist? Medicine has created some very specific specialties, but HTN specialist, no.

MVP is quite common in women. About 60% of women have prolapse of the mitral valve. There is really nothing one can do about it. Most doctors wo not put their patients on medication unless the prolapse becomes severe.

Having yourself checked every couple of years or so is just fine.
A cardiologist is not going to do more nor is he/she going to give u that much more information.

No.

You need to learn how to relax through meditation.

My father was told he would live 6 months, back in 1989.

The Doctors were correct. He lived those 6 months, and is still more alive than most humans I've met.

He took up Vedic meditation, teaches courses now, and has since fathered 4 beautiful children with a wife 1/3rd his age.

RELAX.
