ok im 17 and had really bad chest pains for like 2 years and the dr told me last year my valve was leaking and the pains have been getting worse what should i do?
Minor valve leaks are common - I'm 6'1 and I've got one and I lead a perfectly normal life. The chest pains are probably unrelated as a valve leak doesn't hurt, and a heart attack has additional symptoms which you haven't mentioned. It's probably working out too hard, atrophy, growing pains, or bad Mexican food. YES, see a doctor, always, but it's probably nothing. I get chest pains too (along with pains in other parts of my body - especially when my ex is around), and it's nothing.
Your doctor should have referred you to an heart specialist. Don't be asking kids here, ask the doctor!

Skip the primary care physician and go straight to a cardiologist who will do a heart sonogram and run other test and therefore will be able to deal with your issues at hand. I have Mitral Valve Prolapse and I only knew this through a heart sonogram.
You need to get referred to a specialist that will preform heart surgery to fix your problem
