I have been getting terrible pains in my chest for about 5 days now, so i went to the docs yesterday for a check up. My GP looked really worried and asked the nurse to do an ECG on me straight away. The results came through after 10 minutes or so, and were normal.
Then i gave a blood sample, did a poop sample this morning, to take back on monday. ( Sorry if your having your tea )
Anyways, she proceeded to take my blood pressure, and it is off the scale and way too high. they gave me a portable BP checker thingy, and i have to do my own twice a day, morning/evening for 1 week. I did it last night and this morning, and it is still off the charts. Ah well. I was perscribed Extra stong Gaviscon, and some Tablets for indigestion. The tablets seem to be doing something, as the pain has moved from the left side to the right side of my chest

3 out of 4 of my "Kunghei" orders are waiting to be packaged,
so it looks like things are moving again after the hols

Same here with my 2 orders George

Sorry to hear that - but glad all was OK with the ECG!
Such things are an awful worry. Have you any Theanine Serene tablets?

My BP is always 10-20 points up when around doctors, and if I'm worrying about getting it down before another visit, it tends to stay higher. Easy to say try to stay relaxed, hard to do especially when repeatedly checking BP!
My husband was getting high readings at the doctors and at home, so they put him on a 24 hour check - disrupted his sleep a little, but overall the results were very good.
Hope your BP lowers and that the cause of the chest pain can be identified or fixed simply!

But, if for any reason you feel unsure or worried over the weekend or before you go back, get checked at the A&E dept. of your hospital!

Whatever, take good care of yourself.

Yes, i take a Theanine Serene every day Trish She did tell me to go straight to A&E if i was no different today, and actually tried to send me yesterday, but as the pain has moved to the other side, i`m hoping that it will shift soon I am hoping it is just trapped wind, as i have had that before and know how painful it can be, and sometimes difficult to get out, but i will see if the presrciption works over the next couple of days before i decide on anything else.
Don`t fancy going sitting up there for 4 + hours.

I've been glad to find I can still take it ...seems IBS doesn't go away just because Colitis 'happens'!

I learned a frightening lesson last October when I almost defied a doctor wanting to take me straight to hospital. Hadn't known much about sepsis then, but do now!

I am hoping it is just trapped wind, as i have had that before and know how painful it can be, and sometimes difficult to get out, but i will see if the presrciption works over the next couple of days before i decide on anything else.

Right enough, trapped wind can be excruciating, and I hope it is trapped wind too, but seeing where the pain is, be wary, especially with your BP registering high.
Windeze (Simethicone) can be very effective at starting to move it.
I'd think that telling A&E you have chest pain and high BP may result in you not waiting for a very long time.

Hope you're OK Tel and it just turns out to be something minor.

Doesn't sound good, my initial thought was Angina until you said it moved from left to right side, as that is usually in the middle, do you get any radiating pain in your jaw - ECG can look okay, mine always did, is the pain all the time or only when you exert yourself, even if only a little, like climbing the stairs or walking. Sounds like you may need further investigation - hope everything works out anyway.

1st 3 of my FT orders are still showing "Order Received" but the 4th one which was 6 x Sony Batteries where I mucked up the order is "Waiting to be Packaged", the 3rd one was expected after the 20th-23rd anyway

 

[Bobw1951]

@Davantrac saw you looking on AAEC, that'll be a fingerprint magnet unlike George's and mine that are brushed aluminium.

 

[Marcus1970]

Terry,Chicken Phial.a few beers that will get rid of trapped wind.Don't know about the BP though

On a serious note get well soon mate

Thanks for your concerns Trish, i appreciate it It does seem to be getting better now ( The Chest Pain ) And i will continue taking my BP and see how things pan out. No doubt she will want to see me again after i have handed in the results, and i am hoping that they will get my BP down with tablets, we`ll see.

Thanks George, me too

She did ask about pain in my jaw etc Bob, and no, i don`t. It did move right over from my left side, to the right side in my ribs under my arm. The pain was constant at the time no matter what i was doing, but as i said to Trish i think it has more or less gone now thank god, so just my BP to sort out hopefully.

Glad it's getting better. Hope it continues that way.
Don't get stressed or anxious about the blood pressure ..it may go down if the pain goes, and that would be good.
