I'm really worried because my heart rate has been staying between 100 and 130 for the past three months. Just a few days ago, I started feeling pain in my chest and arm. What should I do?

Your symptoms of a persistently high heart rate along with chest and arm pain are concerning for a possible cardiac issue. It is important to seek immediate medical attention for further evaluation and treatment. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 325mg immediately to help reduce the risk of blood clot formation. But, please do not delay seeking medical help.

Today it shot up to 153110 and he took his usual Tazlock 20, which has Telmisartan IP in it. Is this something we should be really worried about and what steps should we take from here?
