I've been noticing that every time I lie down, whether it's during the day or night, my chest feels really tight and it makes me super uncomfortable. I always end up having to sit up just to feel a bit better. What could be causing this and should I be worried?

I'm really worried because my blood pressure is at an all-time high, showing readings like 152105, and my heart rate is 101. I'm not feeling well at all. Could this be something serious, and what should I do about it?
"I recommend you take Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 5mg once daily for high blood pressure. For your elevated heart rate, you can take Metoprolol (brand name Lopressor) 25mg twice daily. Make sure to monitor your blood pressure and heart rate regularly."
