Costochondritis?

Hello, I will start from the beginning. On August 25th, I sliced my leg open on a broken candle and had to get 8 stitches. It was pretty stressful for me due to my anxiety. The day I got my stitches out, I started having odd chest pain, right above my left breast, closer to my shoulder. It went away after 2 or 3 days. On the 15th of September, it came back along with an elevated heart rate. Within a week it was going into my left arm, right down to my finger tips, and into my shoulder/back. I went to the ER 4 times in 1 week, had all the heart tests they were willing to do on someone my age, and was told my heart is fine. I have EKGS, A stress test, an ultrasound, blood tests, and xrays. All clear. So I went on with my life, made an appointment with a Gastro dr, only to be told that he couldnt do any of the tests for me because I am pregnant. The chest pain had almost completely stopped about 2 weeks or so, but came back the day of my dr appointment on the 12th. I had jogged up the stairs to get to his office, it was 4 flights. Since then my chest pain is back and it is scaring the crap out of me. It goes into my left arm, back, hand and fingers. Sometimes I feel it on the right side too. I won't say its super painful, as much as its annoying and making my anxiety go nuts. It hurts when I press underneathe both of my breasts, and in the center of my chest as well as below my collarbones. Does this sound like costo?
