Why do I have pains in my chest?

I went to hospital yesterday because of pains in my chest. They did an EKG, blood work, and xrays. All test turned out normal. I was told to follow up with family doctor today. I called my doctor and they can't see me until Thursday. I am still having pains and headaches. What do you think? Oh, my blood pressure was high and that is not normal for me. I have tried zantac, pepto, and mylanta hoping this is indigestion but so far nothing is helping the pain.

    The best thing to do when this happens is to stay warm and don't have any sudden changes in temperature. Try to drink warm water instead of hot water and see if it helps.
