Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
No need to worry heart related diseases because you are too young (33 years) and having normal echo report.
In my opinion, we should first rule out uncontrolled hyperthyroidism.
Your thyroid might be uncontrolled and this high thyroid hormone can cause sympathetic over activity and pain (pricking type) in chest.
So better to get done TSH, Free T3 and Free T4.
If there is poor control then you may need additional dose of carbimazole or propranolol (beta blocker).
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
