Suggest Treatment For Chest Pains

My partner has been taken into hospital with chest pains. Her cardiac enzymes are slightly elevated and BP 174/93. The nurse said one cardiac enzyme was +55 and her CRP is +11 which indicated an infection. Is all of this serious as they are keeping her in hospital but say it may be heartburn. They are repeating tests in 6 hours

Thanks
