Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my Mother has stage 4 chf. she has been in and out of the hopital for about 6 months, the last two months the stays have been longer, her injection fraction is about 22%. 6 months ago it was 35%, how much longer do i have with her? this last hospital visit she had adema, she also has cardiac asthma and type 2 diabetes
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that if your mother is in CHF then kindly keep a monitor on her water fluid intake which should not be more than 1 liter per day and be consistent with follow ups with your treating cardiologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
