Reoccurring shock pain in middle of spine that i feel in the middle of chest/back and then spreads left and right for a few seconds. heart was cleared?

Thoracic spine: It appears you've had a thorough cardiac workup, so a spine workup should be considered at this point - imaging, exam, etc. Your pain may be coming from an early degenerative disc, a herniated disc, or other spinal pathology.
