I from EU and my english isnt my native language, so excuse me for misunderstanding. I wished to know exactly what you have writen.

Either your parents can't easily afford doctor(you can judge of it by how luxurious lifestyle your family leads. Sorry for being captainobvious). Or you mother wishes to use this chance as a trail for you, so you become more religious in the process. For example attend church with her, so everybody could pray for you.

They can certainly afford it.
Its a ploy, i was told straight up it was jesus knocking on my heart when i first told her. She just wants me to be religious.

She said it was Jesus knocking on my heart. I asked my dad later and he said he thinks im fine. Now I am having some symptoms of cardiovascular disease like arm pain and jaw pain (granted it comes at random moments and its possible they are totally seperate events) but I am still scared about it and I cant do anything about it.

What can I do to convince my parents to let me check it out?

Try guilting them into it, look up relevant interwebz pages and let them point it out to them. It is probably nothing, but the worry wont go until you see some one.

You could fake it all and attend church and all that jazz to get medical treatment this time and in the future until your independent. Alternatively you parents fanatical or aggressive faith will cause you more stress and pain. If you parents are willing to see you suffer just so they could recruit you in their faith, they can do it for long as well I think.

What's the holdup, is something urgent on TV that they need to risk your health over?
