Feel Tired, Chest Hurts And Pain In Arms. Have Bruised Muscle Around Heart. Anything Dangerous?

I had all the signs of having a heart attack and they did some tests on me, told me that I bruised the muscles around the heart. But I went back for a follow up appointment and I am still very tired all the time my chest still hurts and pain in the left arm. I think that I have a clogged artiery some where, and heart problems run in my family. What do I do?
