View allI'm wondering if you can help me understand what's going on with my blood pressure. It's been fluctuating a lot, sometimes shooting up to 180 over 110, and my pulse rate gets really high too. My heart and sugar levels are fine, but this blood pressure issue is worrying me. Do you have any advice or medication suggestions to help stabilize it?

I've been experiencing this sudden sharp pain in the center of my chest for a while now, actually since middle school, about 3 to 4 years ago. Initially, it took me by surprise, but I brushed it off. It happens like 2 to 3 times a month, and I've just kind of lived with it. The thing is, it happens randomlywhether I'm just walking or chilling watching TV. What really caught my attention was that a few days ago, the pain lasted much longer than usual. It's typically 15-20 seconds, but this time, it dragged on for a solid 2-3 minutes. That got me a bit worried. I havent told my parents yet because I feel okay now, but could it be something serious that I should be concerned about? Any ideas on what this chest pain might be would really help.
