most likely, depends on their weight and age
2 :
Yes, because if there is cholesterol lining the arteries, then their arteries would be smaller in diameter. Then, the blood rushing through would place more pressure on the arteries, since there is the same blood volume flowing through a smaller space. This leads to high blood pressure. I hope I helped, have a nice day.

This Patient Guide is written for the loved ones of heart patients who are dealing with the short-term stress that comes with a test, procedure or recent diagnosis of heart disease. It explains why support is so important to a loved one with heart disease. It also offers practical strategies on how to support a loved one while also taking care of yourself.

no...a clogged artery is only one type of heart disease...a person with a clogged coronary artery does not always have high blood pressure...so someone without high blood pressure could still have heart disease
