Default this is driving me crazy!!!!

Hi everyone,

I am new to this and came hoping to find some answers or at least logical thought. About 9 months ago i started having episodes that last for days where my resting heart rate will jump to 125 bpm, and my blood pressure will hit 190/150. When i have these episodes my chest hurts and is very tight, i get sick and vomit rather violently when i stand up for any length of time. Three hospitalizations and a ton of tests i have no answers.

Im on bp meds and a beta blocker to control my heart rate, which doesnt make the symptoms disapperar but rather helps with the severity. Ive been episodic now for three straight days while taking my medications and i feel like im having a heart attack,am nausious and periodically throw up. Hy hr is over 110 bpm at rest. I call the nurse line and they tell me to go to the ER like stat, but ive been down that road and its been the same result. They keep telling me its either anxiety or effects of prolonged high bp. I dont feel anxious and it happens frequently when im calm and at rest......im so tired of this. any thoughts here?
