What Is The Treatment For Stabbing Pain In The Chest?

Female - 46 - Family history of heart blockage.

Chest pain: burning, strong tightening, pressure, etc in chest, left fingers tingling; much nausea; lightheaded...

Went to E.R.: had echo card. done: had stress test test (passed) done, had EKG within normal range... but they gave me Nitro pill under tongue and it took away stabbing pain and much of sharpness of pain & pressure. Put Nitro paste on patch on chest and the rest of the symptoms cleared.

Problem: they still can't figure it out & don't care to dropp over because of something "not tested or done".

Suggested path ? ( I am following up with my D.O. in 5 days )
