What Do These ECG Test Results For Severe Chest Pain Indicate?

Sir I am 51 year old women. I have been having high level of stress due to many problems mainly family related for several years. Yesterday I had severe chest pain morning , on the left side starting from the left front shoulder radiating down where I could not breathe even for few seconds normally a heaviness on the chest but that developed when I was highly stressed and aggressive and anger crying unable to bear situation , felt stiffness breathlessness felt very less supply of oxygen with chestpain and back side of chest too. this lasted for 20mins to half hr then felt tired and slpt , but whn i got up night at 10pm still pain had not subsided , so i rushed to hospital. The ECG first showed MI Myocardial Infarction and dr said changes r there a mild attack then they took another ECG after 20 mins ECG then showed Left atrial enlargement P 50mS The Dr then said no heart attack consult a cardiologist and consult for a psychaitrist. Wht I am worried isWhy should ECG show first MI heart attack , why later ECG showed differently. Why should I hv all such attack symptoms , DO i really had a heart attack. Will anger , aggression shouting especisally when we develop chest during those time lead to heart attack or result in heart problem . My BP is 150 90 r 100 r some times 160 90 at times it has gone to 190 110 when i had hit on my left side of heaD above my ears. PLs help me getting answers and remedy for all these .
