heart problem or panic attack

I am a 31 year old male and can be anywhere from 20-50 lbs. over weight . I do work out alot(run/swim) but eat unhealthy most times .Aprox. 3 years ago i started worrying about my heart especially when i was very over weight and not working out,I would constantly monitor my pulse and feel dull pains or discomfort.Finally I went to the emergency room they took an x-ray and EKG and blood work up.They said everything was fine and sent me home.I didn't think about it  again until about a year later when I had slowed or stopped working out and had put on weight again.So I went back to the hospital again, this time they just took an EKG said everything was fine and let me go.Once again I have put on weight and am feeling very uneas and feeling discomfort around my chest and having dull pains under my left armpit.Any advice would be helpfull.Also I feel pretty good while running or swimming it doesn't effect the length of my workout.
