Chest pain while working out

Question

Asked for Female, 30 Years

I quit taking lexapro about 10 months ago & for months afterward I had chest pains. I saw a doctor who said it was probably just anxiety as I’m a young, healthy adult. He asked if I had chest pains while working out & I said no.Today, I worked out for the 1st time in about 3 months & after about 20 minutes of cardio, I had chest pain. I did have anxiety before going to the gym so I’m not sure if that had anything to do with it & the pain was just delayed?It has since gone but I’m still concerned
