Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
We should rule out cardiac cause first, for your left sided chest pain.
So better to get done ecg and 2d echo.
If both are normal then no need to worry for cardiac disease.
Chest pain with feeling of water inside chest can be seen in pleural effusion.
So get done chest x ray to rule out this.
If all these tests are normal then no need to worry much for any major disease.
Anxiety can also cause similar false symptoms.
So avoid stress and tension. Be relax and calm. 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.
