This : This constellation of problems is concerning for angina, which is chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle as a consequence of cholesterol blockages in your heart arteries. Your elevated blood sugar means you have diabetes. Diabetes increases the risk of heart disease, as does high blood pressure. You should see a doctor asap to discuss these findings. If your chest pain becomes severe, unrelenting, or is occurring at rest, then you should see a doctor immediately as these can all be symptoms of heart attack or impending heart attack.
