Chest pain
I have been having chest pains since last night, I went to the ER, they did blood work, a chest x-ray and a few breathing treatments. After all that I'm still having pain. They basically told me they didn't know and sent me home with an inhaler, steriods and Prilosec. I've tried all these and none are working. I would rather not go back to the ER because I wasnt treated very well there, like I was bothering them with my problem. But I'm still having pain and it's scary. I just want another opini

There isn't sufficient information to give you a specific diagnosis as there are multiple causes for chest pain, but cardiac problems must be ruled out by an ECG and a Trop I. You should meet a MD general medicine so that you can be physically examined and undergo necessary investigations to find the underlying cause and have it treated accordingly. If the problem persists or worsens visit the ER at the earliest.
