Hello, Thanks for posting your query on Healthcare Magic...
* Brief Answer:
chest pain needs to be checked , blood pressure need to be controlled by
weight loss , diet and medication if needed.
*Explanation: My opinion is that
high blood pressure on many occasions is an indication for control .That happens on many levels. First, be sure that high blood pressure is not secondary to any other diseases as Cushing or
renal failure.Then ,Diet with low salt and less fat content is crucial. Exercise and other healthy activities are also a mean to control blood pressure. If all that dose not help, medications are a must .That is usually decided by your doctor according to your condition and comorbidities .Some drugs that are perfect for patients are not necessary good for others.Regular blood pressure monitoring is as important as starting treatment so that we could assess efficacy of the medication we started.
I suggest my patients the following : detailed history about chest pain electrocardiogram and some labs as
cholesterol and uric acid.
The information provided by you is not sufficient to provide a good opinion. If someone comes to me with this condition I would ask them about other comorbidities like
diabetes,
hyperlipidemia etc
*Conclusion: I suggest you consult your physician about your medications.chest pain need to be checked.
If you have any further questions I will be happy to help, If not, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish you good health.
