Question: I’m a generally healthy 60 yr old female. I recently discovered mold in my bedroom due to a leak in the roof. I have been coughing and not sleeping well for months. 2days ago I started with kidney pain in my left side. I went to a natural doctor and he gave me stuff to help with it. I’m feeling some better but now have chest heaviness and rapid heart beat. I took my bp and although it’s normally in healthy range, it’s now 159/89 and pulse of 98. I have had a headache all day and feel pretty worn out. What should I do?

Brief Answer:
Go to ER

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice
I think you should go to ER. BP is high and cardiac frequency is at upper normal limit.
The head ache was a sign of high BP.
Chest heaviness and pain may be sign of infarction
