What Causes Chest Pain Along With High BP?
My 77 yr old dad is getting winded fairly easy, he walked to the back of his yard and back and his chest was hurting, he took his blood pressure right afterwards and it was 204/104 after rest ( 30 min later ) it was 154/70. He has a stress test scheduled for tomorrow am, but should he seek medical attention tonight?
