I've been having chest and upper back pain for about 34 months now. I've done the ECG twice, and the results were normal, and my X-ray showed nothing unusual. But the pain keeps spreading more and more each day and can start or stop at any time. I don't have cough, fever, or vomiting or anything like that. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

I've been monitoring my blood pressure and it's usually around 13090 or 13787, which I'm not sure if that's high or normal. Do I need to be on any medication for this? At home, it's typically 13086, but at work, I've noticed it goes up to 14085 or sometimes even 14080. How can I keep my blood pressure at a healthy level? Should I be worried about these readings or is this something normal? Could you give me some advice on this?

it is normal

I'm feeling some pain in my left chest, right where the ribs are, just under the man breast. It gets more painful when I press that spot, but I don't have any issues with breathing. My cholesterol was borderline high in my recent health check-up, but my Echo 2D was normal about 20 days ago. The pain level is pretty low, like a 1 out of 10, but I'm just a bit worried about why it's happening. Should I be concerned? Any insights would be really helpful.

Normal, nothing to worry ok.

I'm really worried because my blood pressure has been super high for the last few hours, reading 197 over 111. I'm feeling a lot of discomfort and it's making me nervous. Could this be hypertension or something else I should be concerned about? What should I do right now?

High blood pressure with readings of 197111 is a cause for concern and may require immediate medical attention. You can take Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 10mg to help lower your blood pressure. It is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
