I get chest pain...I'm 18 I have done tests like the stress test and heart moniter things and i did a tilt table and was diagnosed with vasil vagil......I still get chest pains they say it might be from stress or its my muscles on my rib from being in an uncomfortable position....I don't think thats it these pains can get pretty painful....sometimes i feel like I'm dying but they say my heart is in really great shape.....What should i do about the pain? what could it possibly be?

boy can i relate to your symptoms! I'm glad you've had all the tests you mention and now I would recommend doing a program called Heart Math. It has been a powerful tool to help me with the anxiety that has caused me, for over a decade, to have chest pains and palpitations. I've had nuclear CT stress tests, echos, lung scans, lab tests etc. all normal every time. I really empathize with what you're going through. Good for you for taking good care of yourself to check all of this out.
For me, starting with meditation exercises/yoga/tai chi type things will help also warm baths, paying attention to breathing. Start there but then find a Heart math coach or get the book "Transforming stress" by Doc Childre. Good luck. It can be overcome.

If you dont have history of heart ailment in your family, try releasing extra air in your diaphgraph by laying on your bed facing floor and back up. Exercise your legs up and down for few minutes to force air to come out.... i mean from your rectum.

Have you been checked for acid reflux. Heart burn from spicey foods and or acid reflux can feel like a heart attack.
