chest pain and pressure

Hi I have had every heart test there is I think In June I even had a heart cath just to ruke out heart problems I have had the chest pain and pressure for a little over two years now and it has ruined my life I cannot do anything I just lay arounfd. What are the chances of the tests being wrong and how long after the heart cath test should I wait to have another heart evaluation?
  
Thank you,

honestly i have EXACTLY the same problem mine has been goin on for years but the heart thing got so much worse when my grandad died in 2006, i have had really bad pains today and they scare the hell out of me. you just have to trust the doctor and have faith in the tests, i know its hard but we can beat this. anytime you need to chat you can message me.

hi im in the same situation as you totally. have you seen a therapist or been diagnosed with anxiety? i have severe heart anxiety and it *****, i get allsort of pains and weird sensations. i just posted on here a short while ago im so scared.
as for the tests being wrong i very much doubt it they cant mess with peoples lives. if you believe the tests are wrong you will just fuel the anxiety and make the symptoms worse. my doctor now refuses me any more heart tests cause im healthy so its a total waste of money, i think you should stop the tests too they only fuel the anxiety in the long run.
