General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello there I have read through your question and understand your concern. What you are describing is not silent stroke but seems like you are experiencing animal pain. It can be the indication of an underlying serious cardiac condition and needs further investigation. You should visit a cardiologist and consider getting a 24 hour holter monitoring. Avoid doing any strenuous activity and avoid stress as it may aggravate your situation. You may also need to undergo a coronary angiography depending upon the results of your holter. Other causes of intermittent chest pain can be Gastroesophageal reflux which can be diagnosed by a physician on detailed history and examination. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write. Thank you for choosing healthcare magic.
