hello,
I have gone through your query.Thanks for using HCM.
your mom may have cause other than heart and closure of ASD responsible for her symptoms.
usually such symptoms if due to heart may show fluctuations of BP.As you mentioned that her BP is normal all through out.Is she on any medications ,sometimes drug may be responsible for the same.
Please give me feedback to enable me to guide you further,
My best wishes
