Hello, Edub! How are you feeling? I'm very sorry about the problems you've been having.

First of all, any time you experience chest pain, you should have it checked out to be safe, especially with the elevated BP. That's just not something worth playing around with and trying to self diagnose.

Next, Fenofibrate has been known to cause anxiety as a side effect, so your symptoms could be from drug induced anxiety. Other side effects, as listed by the FDA, may include cough, migraine, rash, blurred vision, eye irritation and earache.

Thus yes, it could be causing these issues.

Is there anything else I can help with?
