Hi, I have chest pain at top in middle of chest in upper breastbone. It is from almost 2 years now. Sometimes it goes away and come again I consulted with cardiologist and get ECG, ECHO, TMT test done, X- Ray as well. All my reports are negative.

Costochondritis

I was having chest pain after covid recovery in may. It was okay after some time then it started again. Ecg was normal one time and after 3 months it showed irregular heartbeat only. Every test is normal So doctor said it might be costochondritis, as pain is in upper rib area and it's very sharp. I woke up last night abruptly and palpitations were so high. One of the doctors I know suggested the following medications Thiospas 4 mg Tramadol And dexa 4 mg for 3 days and then tapered slowly. I took steroids while covid treatment for around 9 days and now I'm scared of taking steroids. Should I take them? Please tell asap
