While this response is adaptive in the short term, chronic stress keeps your blood pressure elevated for extended periods, increasing your risk of hypertension (high blood pressure) and its associated complications, such as heart disease and stroke.

Over time, chronic stress can lead to the development of conditions like hypertension and heart disease. This process, known as atherosclerosis, increases the risk of heart disease, heart attacks, and strokes. Additionally, blood pressure is a measure of the force of blood against the walls of your arteries.

About a fifth of all ischemic strokes are attributed to embolization of ruptured atherosclerotic plaque from carotid arterial stenosis. It has been mentioned that risk due to clonal hematopoiesis is equal in magnitude to conventional risk factors like smoking, hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes.
