I'm 21 years old, 135 pounds and I don't smoke. No known family history of heart disease either.
I've had chest pains while running since senior year of high school. It would be a dull/pressure/achy pain in my mid chest that would go away when I stopped. I've had a resting echo, and MRI and a CT scan and they all came back normal. However, I've had 3 stress echo tests [one at 17, one at 19 and one at 21] and all 3 of them showed changes on the ecg which they said indicates lack of blood flow to my heart. But the echo portion came back normal... but the doctors said they weren't able to get clear pictures because I have a chest deformity. They still called it normal though.
If I'm having chest pain while running, and I have ECG changes, how can this be considered normal?
Also, if someone were to have heart related chest pains while exercising... would the chest pain be brought on my any type of exercise [biking, running, weight lifting, etc] or can it only show up during certain exercises?
