Brief Answer:
Need more details.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
I have read your query in detail. I understand your concern.
It depends on your lab values.
Tropinin is of many types, so it is based on which type of Troponin you are talking about.
In general, Normal troponin levels are 10 or less micrograms per liter of troponin I and 0 to 0.1 micrograms per liter of troponin T.

I would like to know a few things:

1.Are you having any chest pain?
2.Why were your Troponin levels measured?
3.Have you got your ECG done?
4.Please attach the report.

This is my best advice for you with the available details, if you have any further query, please ask me and revert with the answers of the questions I have asked preferably in point wise manner.
Stay Healthy
