Confusin question: Its not necessary angina, but if its a new problem, go to the er anyways to make sure its not a pe (pulmonary embolism). Hope its nothing major. Not sure how you know you have atx. Good luck.

Yes: Yes, go to er if you experience any chest pain. Your cardiologist should be aware of all such symptoms.

When in doubt, go to: The er. Although you're still young to have serious heart condition, still go to the er for worsening chest pain and sob. I presume u had previous ekg's, ct/mri/xrays of chest based on the history you've given.Ask the er dr and your physician for the cause of your symptoms. If heart condition is ruled out possibly you may have anxiety/panic attack, thyroid condition, white coat syndrome, arrythmia etc.
