What Causes Chest Pain?

After suffering chest pain, going to hospital, clear chest xray, negative blood results, good stress test results. My GP has told me that I may have suffered a precardiol catch ??? I have had high bp for over a year and I have an extensive family history of angina and heart disease. He tells me I have nothing to worry about?????

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Since your stress test is normal, no need to worry for major heart related diseases.
You need to control your blood pressure.
Sometimes stress and anxiety can also cause high blood pressure and Chest pain.
So avoid stress and tension. Be relax and calm.
Consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions.
Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution.
You may need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, you will be alright. Strict restriction of salt in diet is needed for control of blood pressure.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
