Hi,

Is there any associated acid reflux ?

Have you seen a Cardiologist to rule out Cardiac chest pain ?

Any Chest X- Ray done ?

Any relation of pain with food ?

Is the pain localised ? generalised ? Any local tenderness ?

Any associated neck pain ?

Hi,

Since your relevant cardiac investigations are coming back fine I would suspect non cardiac causes of chest pain like acid reflux , costochondritis , anxiety , muscular pain , pinched nerve .

Since cardiac cause have been ruled out i would not panic much .

But this needs a thorough history for a appropriate diagnosis .
