Brief Answer:
Your symptoms are related to musculoskeletal pain.
Detailed Answer:
Hello again Theresa!
I understand your concern and would explain that the pain characteristics that you describe ( sharp back pain that come and goes) are typical of a musculoskeletal disorder (probably local inflammation or chronic degeneration of the vertebral column).
In my opinion this pain is not related to the heart.
For this reason, I would recommend taking ibuprofen or acetaminophen for the pain.
I am quite sure that your echo stress test will result normal.
So, try not to think about it any more!
Wishing all the best,
Dr. Iliri
