Thank god I don't have that kind of pain,,,I had constant chest pain,,,but lowering my BP has seemed to stop it for the time being...
Take Valerian root! It really lowers your BP and it helps you sleep too.

My husband hates taking any medicine and he has high BP and needed to increase his life insurance. He knew they would send a nurse out to take his BP so he took Valerian root for a week before she came and it worked! His BP has been high for over 10 years! We were really impressed because he has tried all the prescription pills and the side effects were bad so he would stop.

He takes Valerian everyday now with Fish oil capsules. <--- if you take one thing take fish oil it really is good for your heart.
