Sir, all my test like ecg, echo, tmt, chest xray all were normal, except high ldl cholesterol for which doctor suggested me rosuvas and I am taking it. It has been one month since I had chest pain. Now again I am feeling chest pain and tightness. Doctor said to have a bp medicine if tightness and chest pain occur. Which should I take metoprolol or amlopidine? My weight is 110 kg and bp one month ago was consistent 140/90. I am not able to measure bp due to lighten. Which medicine should I take, I have with me metoprolol which I bought a year back or should I buy amlopidine or take both?

You have not mentioned your ldl level. Mere hyperlipidemea & a bp of 140/90 not sufficient to produce chest pain unless associated with coronary insult (sihd or acs) or myocardial or pericardial damage. So my suggestion will be to visit a cardiologist nearby for thorough clinical evaluation followed by appropriate investigation (repeat ecg, repeat echo might be necessary) & medication can be prescribed accordingly.
