Hi,

I cannot say in your particular case, but generally, you'd have a stress test to evaluate for angina. Possibly with nuclear studies. Then, some of the other possibilities is esophageal spasm (but nitro almost always works WELL for that). Reflux and of all things diaphram or upper stomach spasm and metoclopramide might work. Oh, you'd want to check for aortic aneurysm although it is a bit of a long shot. But you have to rule out cardiac origin.

I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.

Regards,
