Ask the doctor. A few years ago, I started getting a dull chest pain when I walked up hills. My doctor said it sounded like I had angina, so I had a stress test, which was read as positive. However, when I underwent a coronary angiogram, there was no evidence of any blockage in my coronary arteries. I continue to have chest pain, yet my doctors just tell me not to worry. What should I do?
