sorry to hear that you should pretty much cut as much salt out of your diet as you can, and do your best to avoid stress.. I don't think there's much you can do to cure it. I have a cousin who's 20 who also suffers from the same thing, she'll even have light heart attacks sometimes.. even though they're harmless, its always scary. Unfortunately high blood pressure runs in my family so while I'm fine now, there's a big chance I'll end up getting it when I'm in my 40's. As far as I know the meds don't seem to big that big of a deal, my dad only takes around 1-2 pills a day, so its nothing serious like a diabetics meds.. You really should talk to your doctor about what you should eat to stay as healthy as you can, and stick to it, cuz over time who knows you might overcome it.
