Hello I been having chest pains for about three and a half years when I first got the chest pain I went to the emergency room they did and xray found nothing wrong and suggested that I go to a cardiac doctor there I got a full check up including a cardiac cath. to make sure there wasn't any heart damage that all checked out fine. With my job I'm a autoglass installer. Ive been for about fifteen years I do some heavy lifting I also notice that I have pains in my upper neck area. I take Tramadol for the pain in my chest. My doctor referred me to a thorasic surgeon he found no tenderness around my ribs area so he ruled out any muscleskeletal problems is there any one out there with similar symptons I'm really trying to avoid any strong pain killers but the pain seems to be getting worse. Thanks for any help.
