Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have started having chest pains - I have rampant high blood pressure and take medication. In the last 2 weeks I have stared having chest pains upon medium exertion or emotional upset. The pains sometimes go into m arms and neck. I have also noticed that my cheeks and chest tend to turn red. So far, the pains subside in a little while. Is this angina pain?
Hi.it sounds a lot like angina given your risk factor for cardiac disease which is high bp. Plz get an ECG and if possible a tread mill test as well. It will help. Until then keep continuing your drugs and keep your activity within comfortable levels. Take care.
