Brief Answer:
You may need antiacids
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
I think you are not having heart issues since your CK-MB , troponin levels were normal, also ECG , heart eco test were also normal.
I think your problem may be related to stomach hyperacidity and reflux which can cause heartburn and chest pain.
Using painkillers may make stomach issues worse.
You had stool test which I can guess it was helicobacter pylori test and was negative.
I believe you may need to use Omeprazole 20 mg once daily to reduce hyperacidity and chest pain. Also don't use NSAID's but only paracetamol which don't make it worse.
If you have IBS you may have had symptoms of diarrhea, constipation, stomach cramps for long time together with indigestion abdominal gas .
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
