As per your description, it appears that you want to convey that he has been by Cardiologist many times and any underlying heart problems has been ruled out. May be your friend is under going from psychological stressors causing physical symptoms of f “heart pains”. I hope he is not dependent on any drugs. He definitely needs the help of a mental health professional.
Next Steps
Detailed history and MSE needed.
Health Tips
Try to relax by distracting yourself from chest complaints to some pleasant incidents from your life. Drugs and psychological interventions are needed by your friend.
