Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Since your heart related reports are normal, no need to worry much for heart related diseases.
In my opinion, you are mostly having anxiety related chest pain.
Tryptomer is amitryptillin. It is anxiolytic drug. So your doctor is also thinking of anxiety related pain.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Take Tryptomer as prescribed and you will be alright.
Sometimes, vitamin B12 deficiency can also cause similar kind of pin poking pain. So get done vitamin B12 level and if deficiency then you may need supplements too.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
