Agreed. I'd push for the chest x-ray and also ask if it could be a gabapentin side effect. Did you recently start that or increase your dose? If your PCP refuses to listen, could you go to a different one? Or could your allergist maybe give you a referral (if you need one) to a cardiologist, so you could get the chest x-ray?
