Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
His left sided chest pain is relieved by taking deep breath (relaxation technique), so possibility of stress and anxiety related pain is more likely.
But better to rule out cardiac cause first.
So get done ecg, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test).
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Telling him to avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Don't worry, he will be alright but first rule out heart diseases.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your husband. Thanks.
