Q: My 11 year old daughter has chest pains

Hello, and thank you up front for any and all help I can get. My daughter is 11 she has been having chest pain I have tacking her to the ER, and to her DR. Her position was low, all other blood work is fine, she has cramping in her legs and feet. She is also very very tired she may get energy for about 2 hours and then she is really tired. It seams worse when she over dose her self, like in PE or any running. We did more blood work the other day and position is still low. Dr. is having some heart test done. Ego Cardio Gram and Cat Scan and stress test. He did not tell me what he is looking for, any ideas?

Did the Dr. discuss or even consider asthma?  Even if she has something else wrong she could still be dealing with asthma, kids don't always realize if they are having a hard time breathing or just a nagging cough.  I know I have 2 with it, and a bunch in my family with the weird symtoms.
