Do you have another relative, other than your parents, that you might be able to speak with about your concern?

Then how about letting a neighbor know about the way that you're feeling so that they might speak with your parents about it?
Hopefully, something will get done if another adult knows about this.
Thanks!

You could have a serious medical condition that is being overlooked and even if your pain is psychosomatic it still needs to be addressed.
You can call child protective services.It would be a daring move on your part but it is an option.Or perhaps your neighbor friend could make the call for you. This could be considered child neglect.

I don't understand why they don't take care of this.Even control freaks take care of their children.If you have a medical problem and they are not taking care of it,it is neglect my dear. They are neglecting to give you medical treatment.
You deserve to have your problem addressed .Maybe if you threatened to call CPS they would feel threatened enough to act as proper parents should.

Any time when a parent refuses to take their child to the doctor when their could be an issue... in my book that is neglect... especially when it has something to do with your chest you may have a condition and your parents aren't giving you the attention that you deserve... they should take you seriously... so yes thy are neglectng you
