I have chest pains aswell, however mine have been prevalent all my life because I was born with a heart condition. For me, being prescribed Remeron and not enjoying the messed up dreams that usually come with it, smoke pot to have limited, immemerable, or nonexistent dreams. I can not say whether or not my condition has worsened because the pains come and go at random and for years before both smoking and being on Remeron, I suffered for days to have it go away for years to last again for weeks or months. It is a random event that plagues me and to this day I have not found any common denominators or similarities in what triggers these episodes.
An example includes that it happens while at rest and when active including various levels of physical stress so it isn't a physically stimulated trigger. Happens with or without various stimulants and sedatives. Happens with or without alcohol. With or without mental or psychological stress. Happens at random times throughout the day. With or without food and drink. In all temperatures and climates. Among many other possible triggers. There are far too many to list that I have ruled out but these seem to be the most common triggers for chest pain and mine happens with or without all of them.
The only thing I can confirm is that when I am High and have an episode, the pain is "intensified" and located more around my heart and the way it beats (strongly, strained, feels like its being squeezed and expanded at the same time past its normal limits). I normally have a high tolerance for pain so I can only assume the Marijuana simply neutralizes my tolerance and what I am feeling is just what normal people with normal tolerance feel.
Completely from my perspective so anything is possible. Just including my account for informative purposes.
