I'm really worried about my brother who's 31. He's been having chest pain on and off for the past month, every 3 to 4 days, right in the middle of his chest, and it lasts around 12 hours each time. He saw a doctor nearby who did an X-ray, but they said his chest looked fine. Could you take a look at the X-ray and report? We really need some good advice on what to do next.
