Hello,

Thank you for your query at doctorspring.com.

The pain you describe is most probably not angina. Sharp pain not on exercise is unlikely to be angina pectoris. Jaw pain radiating to back and wrist could be neurological in origin. Another cause of pain radiating to back coild be anortic dissection butis unlikely given the description. So you can get a chest xray done followed by a ct scan to look for the aorta and if that is normal you can take a neurologist opinion regarding this pain.

It however doesn't seem to be arising due to coronary artery disease. It could all be due to anxiety as well though. But that we shall label it only after ruling the neurological and vascular cause of pain.

Hope this helps, please feel free to discuss further.

Thanks for the compliment.

If your stress echo is normal you dont need an angiography. Other option is ypu can undergo a ct coronary angiography along with ct of the aorta. In all probably your stress echo and ct aorta willcome as normal. I wouldn't have sent you for a stress echo because your description is not fitting into coronary artery disease causing angina. The ct of aorta is just to rule out and prove that all this maybe anxiety related. So relax. Get your stress echo or ct coronary angio and then rule out aortic disease by cy of aorta.. then we have all the proof to say you dont have serious cardiac issues.

Hello,

Lets wait for your stress echo report and if that is fine we can be assured that all of it is non cardiac.
