I've been experiencing chest pain on the left side for about 8 months now. I've had an ECG and an Echo, and both came back normal. I even did a TMT test, and it was negative too, even though it showed a heart problem. But I'm still having this chest pain. Could you shed some light on what might be going on? It's really concerning.

I've been dealing with pain in my left hand and left chest even though my 2D echo, TMT, and chest X-ray all came back normal. It's been a couple of months, and I've also got these gaustic issues. I'm taking razol for it, but I'm wondering if you think I should get any more tests done. Could there be something we're missing?

Given your normal 2D echo, TMT, and chest X-ray, yet persistent left hand and chest pains, it is possible that your symptoms are related to gastrointestinal issues, especially since you have been experiencing gastric problems for the past two months and are currently taking Razo-L (rabeprazole). Gastric issues, including acid reflux, can sometimes cause chest pain that mimics heart-related pain. While your current tests are reassuring, if your symptoms persist, it may be helpful to undergo further evaluation such as an upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy to assess for conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or peptic ulcers. Additionally, consider consulting a gastroenterologist to further explore and manage your gastric symptoms.
