Resolved question:
Hi there, for a week now I have been having chest pain, went to the doctor 4 days ago because of pain, nausea, dizziness and numbness, they did an ecg, blood pressure, blood tests, chest xray, and oxygenated blood test and everything came back fine, I still have the same pain and last night had to go to the hospital again with the same symptoms, another ecg and vitals all looked fine, I am worried there is something wrong with my heart, any opinion is welcomed, thank you

Hello,
Thank you for your medical query at DoctorSpring.com
I understand your concern.
You have atypical chest pain which is not associated with cardiac issues and ECG has been done twice and it has come out to be normal.
The commonest cause of such pain besides the angina is GERD related pain or esophagitis.
Do you have any previous history of reflux disorder or hyperacidity?
You can still go ahead and get a 2D ECHO done to rule out heart disease conclusively.
I will advise you to take Cap. Omeprazole 20 mg twice daily, once before breakfast and once in the evening, to ensure that if the pain is indeed due to GERD, it will reduce on taking the medicines.
Hope this was helpful,
Feel free to discuss further.
