I'm a bit concerned about my recent test results and was hoping you could help clarify. I did a 2D echo test, but I'm not sure what counts as normal results for that. Also, I ran for 12 minutes on a stress test machine and I'm wondering what the normal results should look like for that. Can you explain what these tests mean and what I should be looking out for?

I've been experiencing this sharp pain and tightness in my chest, and it sometimes feels more like stabbing. It's not constant - sometimes it's there, sometimes not. It's weird because I also feel it around my back. On top of that, I'm always tired and feel drowsy. Should I be concerned about this?
