Suggest Treatment For Chest Pain And High Heart Rate

I am coming down from morphine 60 MG after 6 yrs. 30 MG in the morning15mg in the afternoon. So dropped to 45 mg. I smoked a little meth 3 hours before the 15 MG pill. Not even 10 cents worth. Now my blood pressure is 130/100 and heart rate 112 while sitting. Chest is hurting. Would a clonidine help?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
No, clonidine will not work. It will in fact be more dangerous in your case.
So better not to take clonidine.
You are in weaning phase of your addiction.
So some degree of tachycardia, palpitations, chest pain are common.
You need to be strong mentally.
Once you wean from all the drugs, your heart rate and chest pain will become normal.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
