It's not your heart: If you had the mentioned tests, then did you ask your doctor what he/she thinks? Most likely, it is multiple musculoskeletal inflammation from a yet-to-be determined cause. Try to think back over the last couple of days.. Did you exert yourself in any way, especially in a new manner (exercise, etc.). If the ekg and cardiac enzymes are normal, you can rest assured its not your heart. Ask ur dr.

Neck pain: Neck pain can mimic a heart attack and a torn rotator cuff of the shoulder. At age 19 and a normal ekg, heart disease is less likely than a nerve impingement in the neck. Shoulder problems can accompany up to 20% of people with neck problems. See a neurosurgeon to evaluate the pain and to develop a treatment plan.
