Hello,
you haven't mentioned electrocardiographic changes although I suspect there had to be some. Feeling pain when exercising and the rest of the findings suggest coronary artery disease. There are methods to confirm or exclude this diagnosis. The anatomy of the coronary vessels should be investigated. You should consult your cardiologist for the best investigation strategy that's suited to your medical history and condition.
Kind Regards!
