General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello. I have gone through your question. The pain in the chest radiating to jaw can be related to heart problem. I would suggest to get an ECG done. Also i would like to know your blood pressure and do you have any breathlessness on exertion? You should also switch over to B blockers like metaprolol xl 50 mg once a day. Please revert back to me with more details.
If you have any other queries/question please feel free to ask. Thanks and wish you a healthy life.
