Hello doctor. I've been taking blood pressure medication, but I still have chest pain during strenuous exercise. In the morning too, even though I have just taken blood pressure medication, I still have chest pain when drinking coffee. Doctor tell me what is my condition? Looking forward to consulting your doctor help me. Thank you.

Hello!
Chest pain can have many causes, but chest pain with exertion or when the heart rate is tachycardia (after drinking coffee) should rule out angina pectoris caused by coronary artery stenosis, even after taking antihypertensive drugs. may have a heart attack. You should see a cardiologist for an early diagnosis.
