U should start BP medicines as u had chest pain. N get ur bp regularly checked.. Bring life style modifications along with it n keep monitoring ur bp. Then visit ur doctor and if he says it is ok to go off medicines then u can stop taking them But never discontinue any prescribed medicine without bringing it to ur doctors notice.
