My c reactive protein test shows 2.9. From what I understand levels between 1-3 mean intermediate heart attack risk. Is 2.9 bad? Do I have a heart problem?

No it does not suggest that, it suggest the inflammation could be anywhere in the body, hsCRP relates more cardiac risk of inflammation. To rule out  significant cardiac blockages need to do TMT TEST. CRP just relate with propensity  to vessel wall for inflammation and cholesterol deposition in cardiac vessels.
