CT value stands for Cycle Threshold. It is a marker of how severe your viral load is. That's it. It has no relation with the severity of covid infection your mother will get. So don't worry. Give her antacid for her heart pain. And get her ECG done.

CT value of RTPCR is not significant as per latest studies, just follow other parameters like symptoms, CRP, D-dimer, IL-6 and relevant investigations as advised by your physician
