Hello, My name is Greg. I am 29 years of age. Ive been having chest pains since Friday on and off, and my left arm has been feeling weird, like a tingling feeling at times. My mental health doctor was concerned because the last time I was there he said my blood pressure reading was 138/100. Im curious because my dad has heart problems, and my dads dad passed from a massive heart attack.                                                                                                                                     Thank-You                                                                                                                                        Greg
Hello Gregory for your father. As you described your chest pain that is radiating to left arm. Generally chest pain of constricting or squeezing type with radiation is likely to be pain from heart. But the sensitivity and specificity of symptoms are very low to confirm the diagnosis. As you have family history and your diastolic BP and you did not mention regarding other high risks like smoking, dyslipidemia, BMI. So in my opinion, kindly contact Physician and get an ECG done to rule out any heart pathology. Thank you.
