How To Treat High BP And Pain Around Arms And Chest?

Hi. For the last month I've been experiencing strange aching feelings in my arms and chest, I get palpitations but my pulse rate is slow:about 60 bpm and my blood preasure shoots up to about 170/92, then my BP drops back to mormal. This happens two or three times a day. I am a fit 58 year old woman; weigh 110 lbs, and 160cm in height. Thanks
