Diagnosed With Heart Disease, Severe Pain In Chest. Used Nasal Spray Instead Of Pills. Unable To Diagnose. Treatment?

My mom keeps getting severe pain in her chest and heart area coming from stomach. Felt like knife going through heart, she took her nasal spray twice instead of pills( under tongue). Still they weren't able to help her in Emergency Room. She has appointment with cardiologist tomorrow, but she's been there so many times and they never find what
s wrong with her. She has been diagnosed with heart disease. I'm so scared she will have a heart attack or stroke when we're not there. My dad is not able to help her. She is almost 75 years old, and her mom did die of heart problems, blood clot.
