Need urgent eval: The severity of your chest pain warrants urgent evaluation. There can be several causes may or may not be related to your BP. Please see a doctor urgently and get further tests done.

Time to see a doctor: Chest pressure or pain, with or without trouble breathing, are signs that he should talk with his doctor right away or go to the ER by ambulance. In adults, chest pain can be a heart attack. If it turns out not to be myocarditis, heart attack symptoms, or anxiety attack symptoms, the ER will also have checked for problems such as a collapsed lung, pneumonia, or heartburn.
