Absolutely....this may be through genetics, a series of health problems or something that was not easily detected in exams. Heart disease does not have an age limit

It dosent seem to good..im really sorry i dont know what to say without feeling bad

you are a walking time bomb and you are only 14? that is sad you shouldn't' have this problem for long long time.
3 :
No one in here can tell you that. You need to be undera doctor's care for the high blood pressure. A doctor can also help you develope an eating plan to loose weight. Good Luck
4 :
yes 100 percent if you don't already have it. you should do something immediately. start off by cutting out the fatty foods, especially fried. and start walking 5 times a day and drinking plenty of water. this will give you energy. you take care of yourself while you're still young. i want you to be in this world as long as you possibly can be
5 :
im 110% sure that if you dont get it REALLY soon, then you already have it. my dad weighs less than you, and he's only 40....
6 :
risk? you've already got it. time to change your lifestyle and lower those percentages. 14 is a real, REAL good time to start.. get to a doctor.. have them check out up and down and all around and begin anew. not kidding on this, trust me. it's not going to get any better.. so stop while you're ahead and at least give yourself better odds and a less painful future. not just for yourself but those around you too.
7 :
look your 14 It's not to late to change your life style and if you start doing it now you might not ever get heart disease. but if you keep on the path your on then my dear your heading for a lot of problems down the road. take care
8 :
At this time, you risk is 100 percent, however with a good diet and exercise along with cutting out bad habits (smoking, etc.) your risk can be lowered dramaticaly. Please get help with this.
9 :
If you are over weight & have high blood pressure you are at risk of heart Disease. To be honest you should lose the Weight, This in return will lower your Blood Pressure. You should also see if you have High Cholesterol as well. If so, losing weight & Excessive should lower it as well.

You need to lose 50 pounds.

Question about high blood pressure and heart disease

Question about high blood pressure and heart disease?
My daughter is 2. When I was pregnant, i developed high bloodpressure. It never went away and sometimes it is very high. I am 22 years old. My doctor never perscribed me any pills to take. i have heard high blood pressure causes heart disease...will it always cause heart disease? does this happen very quickly? i have just started a diet where I am cutting out salt and trying to lose weight and eat healthy. if i get my bloodpressure under control, will my heart heal, or has too much damage been done? im scared :(

Your information is correct; high blood pressure does cause heart disease. The heart is working harder to supply your body with its blood demands. This extra work over time will cause heart problems. While it often causes heart disease, high blood pressure can easily be managed and lowered. You are already taking good steps to lowering your blood pressure. A reduced sodium diet will help, but also exercise is also very good for your heart. If these methods do not help lower your blood pressure, discuss medications for hypertension with your doctor. You are still very young, so there hasn't been a lot of time for you to do much damage. Many people have high blood pressure for 10-20 years before seeing heart problems. If you intervene now, you risk for heart failure should be dramatically decreased.

its early....can be reversed......hypertension causes left ventricle enlargement and hardenning..........but,takes years.................may need meds eventually though...........................
