Treated For Lymes. Having Chronic Pain Near Heart. EKG, Chest XRay Normal. What Are The Complications?
i have a chronic pain near my heart for several months. EKG , Chest XRay came out perfect, vitals perfect. Pain never goes away. ANy Ideas? I had been treated for Lymes 18 months ago, almost seems as if the pain started during lymes and never went away. Dr assumed in March that my heart pain was a virus that would pass. Why isnt it going away???

Thanks for your question
Lymes is a tick bite infection, starts from the skin and involves heart and brain as complications
You need to get specific targeted therapy for it after having confirm diagnosis
If the pain is not relieving then you should consult your doctor so that he rules out any other cause of pain which is persistent even after therapy.
Hope that answers
