When I got there they immediately put me in a cubicle and hooked up ECG leads. They did not note anything unusual but because the pain was still present they wanted to monitor me overnight and would do 2 hourly blood tests - byproducts from cardiac damage can take many hours to show up.
In the morning nothing was found. They did not know what caused my pain which disappeared 1hr after going into hospital.
A few moths later I saw my GP about unrelated matter and he advised me to see a cardiac specialist for further tests but this also showed nothing unusual. I have always been in good health and diet is not bad.
It was great to be able to receive top health care just as a precaution.

Had the same thing, and much the same experience. This happened on and off for three years, turned out to be my gall bladder!
