Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX

Welcome back to Ask a Doctor service!

I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms are not typical of the heart.

Is this spasm related to eating? This could be indicative of gastroesophageal reflux.

Otherwise, you should consider costochondritis.

But, I would exclude the heart considering the description of your symptoms and your previous cardiac tests.

So, just relax and don't worry about it!

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Let me know about everything!

Wishing all the best
