Hi, i have been suffering from chest pain for the last 4 months, and i went to my doctor and he did an EKG and MRI of my chest, everything is good, also i had a physical, everything good aswell , this was like 2 months ago, but i still get chest pain and left arm pain and racing heart , and i went to other doctor thinking it was a heart attack, and he told me im ok, so can anyone tell me why i get chest pain and left arm pain? arent this symptoms of heart attack? im 23 male from los angeles ,, thanks for your help

major panic attacks are my guess-my ex husband always had the same thing and took him to the ER on many occassions thinking he was having a heart attack. BUT.........dont ignore it all together!
get the panic attacks taken care of by a pdoc or your reg doc w/ meds-and DO NOT IGNORE CHEST PAIN W/pain across the shoulders and down the left arm EVER!!!!
