What Does Tightness And Pain In Chest At Night Indicates?

Hello, I am a 59 year old woman with high blood pressure, high cholesterol and thyroid problems which have resulted in using Iodine radiation to "Burn" out the thyroid. All of the above counts are off. We have tried so many meds I have lost couint.
Recently started having tightness in the chest,some chest pain and at night in bed shortness of breath. All of my relatives have died before age 65 due to heart problems. Am I kind of doomed.
