If You Were Having Chest Discomfort/pain Which Was Making You Anxious

If you were having chest discomfort/pain which was making you anxious,?
and you had, had a ECG, and a Stress Test done on your heart while you were on a treadmill, that both tests brought back negative results for Heart problem. Is it a possibility that something could still be getting missed? Ive had both, but dont feel happy, due to fact that I am still getting chest discomfort. it is making me anxious. People with experience of having same tests done and understanding of what I am asking, would be great to get answer off you. Thanks to everyone for any help given.

Talk to your doctor and tell him how you feel. I've been getting chest discomfort for a few months now,I had an ECG,the stress test(treadmill) and an Echo-cardiogram.They were all normal apart from a question mark on my stress test.I was told it could be angina but it wasn't conclusive but I was put on blood pressure tablets and aspirin and have a nitro spray. My doctor has arranged a Cardiac Catheterisation(angiogram), a dye is put into the heart and shows up any problems. He feels we should know once and for all if it's a heart problem.Stressing about it can make it worse but you need to find out the cause.
