Hi,
First of all, it's sad to know what you had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, these symptoms should be worked up and shouldn't be ignored. Baseline EKGs and cardiac enzymes may be needed. If chest pain persists, a nearby medical facility ER may be consulted.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
