    what could it mean when you have a pain in your upper stomach area and the pain is so intense (like labor pains) it doubles you over and you break out in a cold sweat like you gonna pass out then you get a burning feeling in the same area and it shoots a pain through to your lower back

    to h berardi - You can't expect only blood pressure medication to lower your bp - you MUST lower the SODIUM (salt)& cholesterol in -and exercise. Beware packaged/prepared/frozen foods - very high in sodium (soup, microwave meals, etc.).

    What causes a person to feel short of breath at just the least little movement and sometimes lifting my arms is so exausting. I also have small chills but no fever.
