What Causes Severe Chest Pain?
I have been having chest pain so strong that it makes me sick in my stomach. The Doctor the other day put me on blood pressure pills for the first time ever. I m 55 years old. The blood pressure pills didn t help my chest at all. This has been going on for 5 days now. When it hits, I have to sit own. My chest is sore. What do you think I should.

Hi,
You might be having some cardiac ailment like coronary insufficiency giving rise this angina type of pain.
Go for EKG as soon as possible.
You might require lipid profile and stress test as advised by your cardiologist.
Meanwhile take rest.
Ok and take care.
