Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your situation and problem.
In my opinion, you should first get done ecg and 2d echo to rule out cardiac diseases.
Left sided chest pain with rapid pulse rate is common in heart problems.
So get done ecg and 2d echo.
If both are normal then no need to worry for major cardiac diseases.
Stress and anxiety can also cause rapid heart rate and chest pain.
So avoid stress and tension. Be relax and calm.
You can take painkiller for symptomatic relief. But better to first rule out cardiac diseases.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
