Hi,
I read your concern and would like to add that there are many causes of chest pain and some of theme are life threatening.

To exclude life threatening cardiac problems I recommend you a cardiac evaluation with ECG and Heart ECHO.

Also i recommend a gastroenterologist consultation to rule out any gastrointestinal problems.

If all are normal than most probably the pain is due to psychological component.

Hope i answered your query.
