I Have Hypertrophic Cardio Myopathy Non Obstructive. I Diastole And

I have hypertrophic cardio myopathy non obstructive. I diastole and systole CHF . I don't no my ejection fraction. I am a 52 yr old female. I was at the hospital today and signed myself out. Because I went with shortness of breath . They said, the troponin levels was slightly elevated. And the Chf test was slightly elevated. The chest xray looked pretty good. They where checking for pneumonia, They gave potassium. Magnesium A antibiotic and breathing treatments three. Also oxygen. I don't have medical insurance until next month . I felt fine. So I left. My question is can aslightly elevated troponin level be normal for a person. It seems anytime I go near a hospital its elevated. And what is the elevated thing in a Congestive heart failure test whats it called? Thank you
