Patient's question:
Others don't believe that I have high blood pressure at such a young age. What are the conditions for applying for chronic high blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
The chronic disease declaration you mentioned for hypertension should be for a special condition related to hypertension. For the special condition declaration of hypertension, there needs to be a split with complications, such as cerebral hemorrhage or stroke. Additionally, both stroke and cerebral hemorrhage must have lingering sequelae, such as hemiplegia or impaired motor function, to qualify for the declaration. At the same time, hypertensive nephropathy can also be declared. It requires 24-hour urine protein levels greater than one gram to qualify for the declaration.
