Definitely 2nd opinion and ask for a CT Angiogram. That will show any plaque build up in your arteries that may be causing the chest pains. You can pass a stress test easily and still have blockage. That will give you peace of mind. I can’t believe cardiologist wait so long to do that test. It’s better than a stress test and isn’t that expensive. Insurance may or may not cover and it only takes 15 minutes. You may have no plaque build up but it will show you.

I have a follow up in 3 months, if the pain is still around they will do a CT for peace of mind, long time to wait tho , doesn’t help with the stress of it all

I had a echocardiogram and it was perfect , and then a stress echo + EKG , and same result better then it should be, guessing that’s due to my gym work i was doing
