HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Chest pain can originate from any structure in the chest from the skin inwards.
The heart tests would have demonstrated if it is related to the heart.
If you having problems with taking deep breath then it is possible that the pain is related to pleuritis.
This is inflammation of the pleura.
You may want to consider the use of a oral anti inflammatory agent such as ibuprofen, naproxen, cataflam.
I hope this helps
