whats causing chest pains?

its not heart attack

been to the emergency room..all they can tell me its not heart,liver,kidneys or lungs

did full scan n all tests...hospital was no help

pain comes from once a week or once every couple days or sometimes up to months before i have it

anybody can tell me what it is...the medical site is no help..all it says is see a doctor immediately..which they aint no help

pain is in center of chest..male mid 40s..and it is not stress..and not heart attack..can pinpoint

Update:

2nd time i done this..and it works...i dont know why

first time i hit a marijuana when i had this pain...pain subsided and went away

second time..took a hit and again went away

note/ i have not smoke any for a very,very long time...almost 10 yrs or more

i had some that belong to somebody else is why i tried it again...pain sucks when ketorolac and pain pills did not seems to work.

mdweb does not say anything about my symptom..i mean which applies to my situation..no pain nowhere else and is not heart valve or muscle stress.

i really would like to know what causes this so i can prevent this..i am healthy, and cannot come up with any logical explanation why it comes..my first year this ever happened..goin on almost 6 months now..with no pattern or time frame limit it happens. anybody else has this problem??

    There are other possible causes of chest pain such as indigestion and muscle strain. Aside from the heart, the many parts of the chest that can cause chest pain include the lungs, oesophagus (gullet), muscle, bone and skin. Because of the complex system of nerves in the body, the cause of the chest pain may come from elsewhere in the body, such as the abdomen. Tobacco related diseases include chest pain may signal angina pectoris caused by insufficient blood flow to the heart or a heart attack when using.
