A member asked:

Chest pain,pressure,burning in sternum & to left & right,pain in shoulder/collarbone. had ekg, chest ct, stress test, bloodwork, scope. should i get a 2nd opinion for angiogram or would something in these show up if concern for coronary artery spasms?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Did the treadmill stress test provoke chest distress& do you experience it with exertion or emotional stress? If not, I would look into testing for radiculopathy, impingement of a nerve root caused by a spur or bulging intervetebral disc in the upper spine. An MRI can detect these. Consulting a neurologist to check for nerve pain may be worthwhile. Spontaneous coronary vasospasm is more fleeting
