The odds: of this pain being cardiac in a 28 year old female are so remote that your doctor is supported by evidence based medical knowledge. DISCUSS with him/her what OTHER issues are causing the pain...including ANXIETY...your SYMPTOMS should be diagnosed and treated....stop worrying about your HEART Hope this helps Dr Z
