Hello and hope you are doing well.
If the EKG was normal, you don't have to worry about Mitral valve prolapse. Antibiotics may not help with the chest pain. Beta blockers and aspirin are indicated if you have rhythm abnormalities or if prone for blood clots. Please discuss this with your doctor am sure he will provide further assistance.
Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
