Is there a heart valve disease that causes elevated systolic and diastolic blood pressure


Is there a heart valve disease that causes elevated systolic and diastolic blood pressure?
I have an echo next week, and have had chest pains, left arm tightness and heart palpitations(including palpitations in my abdominal region) and I have been tested and have no abdominal aortic aneurysm. My ECGs have come back normal and no doctor has heard a murmur. Anyone have any ideas?

Aortic stenosis is a heart valve disease which can caused increase in systolic and diastolic blood pressure. based on the history that u have given i think u have stable angina. in stable angina, between the attacks, there may be no chest pain, ECG may be normal, and there may not be any murmur. ur doctor might also advise stress test if there are no contraindications.

Most probably angina.

Aortic Stenosis, but you dont really sound like you have Aortic Stenosis, but dont worry and just wait until your echo. Good luck
