Dear
Thanks for contacting Ayurveda with your health concern and a symptom wise approach is necessary:
1. since baseline investigations [ECG/ECHO/USG] are normal thus other causes to exclude are:
. Since chest pain is not related with heart/lungs but is associated with heaviness/fullness with slight burning in stomach thus one should look out for possibility of ‘GASTRITIS’ since it is not a single disease BUT condition which has many causes.
PS. Check with a Gastroenterologist for examination [history/physical] and investigation [Endoscopy for H. Pylori infection]
2. any history of :
. Stress : mental/physical?
. Social habits [addiction]?
. Any abuse of pain killers or Iron tablets [anemia]?
