It could be Angina, a symptom of Coronary Artery Disease. Angina is chest pain or discomfort that occurs when your heart muscle does not get enough blood. Angina may feel like pressure or a squeezing pain in your chest. The pain may also occur in your shoulders, arms, neck, jaw, or back. It may also feel like indigestion. Talk to your doctor.
It could also be a panic attack, during which many people feel they are having a heart attack.

There are many causes for Chest pain that range from Coronary heart disease to psychogenic. Have they checked her for an AORTIC ANEURYSM? This is caused from a weakness in the wall of the aorta where it comes off the heart, it can be from birth or caused from an injury. Extremely dangerous condition to have, it can rupture and the person could bleed to death in minutes. Often the ECG results will read normal in an uncomplicated aortic aneurysm and it can be missed. The best tests to begin with for diagnosing would be a Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or a computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest. The symptoms for an high aortic arch aneurysm are light-headedness, weakness, Shortness of breath, Rapid heart beat, sweating, numbness or tingling in the arm, Chest pain or pressure and loss of consciousness (fainting). This is a very dangerous thing to have, especially if he is having discomfort.

Many people have been brought by ambulances, to hospitals, with heart attack symptoms--which have turned out to be panic attacks--also stress-related...
Because it was not a heart attack this time, don't think that you don't need to see a doctor/ER if it happens again. In the meantime, get to your doctor or a counselor for treatment for panic disorder.

There are several things, I have had high blood pressure since I was 19, I am now 30. Been on meds since, the other day I had to go to the hosp, because I was having pains across my heart, down my upper back, down my arm and leg and into my fingers and toes. my bp was high too and i was clammy and nasueated. they did tests for blood clots and ekgs and stress test, the only thing that came back was the blood clot test was elevated. but a further test revealed I did not thank good ness have a blood clot. They believe it may have been my acid reflux acting up, but ever since I have been fine and bp is back to normal. Good luck and i hope you feel better.
