I went to the emergency room on Monday because of my chest pains that started on Saturday. I'm 27 years old. They ran an EKG, did chest x-rays, took blood samples, and said my blood pressure and heart rate were great but they still couldn't diagnose my problem. I was prescribed 50 mg of Tramadol Hcl and 500 mg of Naproxen. The pain is still there and no one could tell me what the cause is. The medication is not helping at all.
