I am 55 year old female, have high blood pressure, am taking Renatec
20 mg per day. Family history of heart problems. Have had presure
on my chest for the last 3 days. Sometime it is very strong and I
have trouble breathing. It feels like a heavy weight on my chest
and then goes away but I always feel some kind of weight on my
chest, also feels sometimes like a vice going around my chest and
under my arms.
