What Causes Chest Pain And Breathing Problem?
I am having breathing issues along with chest pain... I have seen a lung specialist who says my lungs are in good shape 98%...I have seen a heart specialist who did all the tests up to and including a heart catheterization and there were no blockages found that is in good shape as well... my question is what next what could it be causing my issues

Thanks for your question on HCM.
Since your cardiac and pulmonary work up are normal we need to rule out anemia and thyroid problems as in both these chest pain with breathlessness seen.
So get done CBC (Complete Blood Count ) to rule out anaemia.
Get done S.TSH to rule out thyroid problems.
If both these are normal than your symptoms are most probably due to stressand anxiety. So better to consult psychiatrist and treat anxiety. Be relax and calm. Avoid stress, tension.
