Chest pain heart related or not?

To start, I have wolff parkinson white syndrome and low blood pressure. One day at 6 am I woke up hit my alarm clock and immediately went into tachycardia. By 7:30am it stopped and went back to normal but when it did so it caused sharp chest pain. The pain made me jump forward a bit in my seat and swear. I'm used to having tachycardia but never have I had that pain before. I happened 3 more times that day but only when my tachycardia was going back to normal. I told my cardiologist but he said that type of sharp pain is not common with cardiac problems. Is he wrong? It seems to me that it's related to the tachycardia since it always happened when it was reverting back to normal. Should I have a test or 2nd opinion? I've told him repeatedly I have chest pain but its not the same as the sharp pain I experienced that one day and every time I tell him he says he doesn't think it's related to my heart.
