what does Hypertension mean?
Hypertension just means "high blood pressure." Benign hypertension is high blood pressure that "runs a relatively long and symptomless course"--in other words, your blood pressure is high, but it isn't causing any real problems.

How adrenaline causes high blood pressure?
Epinephrine raises the levels of some body functions, including the possibility of blood pressure. Epinephrine can be a real life saver, particularly if the patient is having a severe allergic reaction. If the blood pressure does rise the physician can treat the high blood pressure. If the patient is treated for an allergic reaction he or she may notice his or her heart races or they are shaky or real tired and perhaps very hyped up. These symptoms will fade away as the epinephrine wears out. I hope this simple explanation helps. Pegalita, medical administrator
