I don't know why you were advised statin. As per present guidelines you don't qualify for it. As regards your chest pain problem I am sure that's non cardiac in nature. Exercise/yoga, posture adjustment while sitting may be sufficient for you. Try to follow healthy lifestyle. No need to worry or undergo extensive tests.
