Chest Pain with Typical Symptoms Coded?

I see a lot of observation accounts for chest pain with varies associated symptoms. Normally I just see documentation that ACS is ruled out and little detail about what caused the event.

Example: Substernal Chest Pain, N/V, SOB, Diaphoresis, and Jaw Pain. Chronic conditions include HTN and Hyperlipidemia.

Would I be correct to code R072, R112, R0602, R61, R6884, I10, and E785?

Or should the symptoms be coded in the Reason for visit field?

Thank you in advance!
