What Causes Weight Loss While Suffering From Hole In The Heart?

Hi, my friend is 20 years old and is having hole in her heart. SHe was suggested to go for an operation, but since last month, she has started losing weight tremendously as she is not able to eat anything. Whenever she eats, she goes for vomitting 15-20 times. Her weight right now is 30 Kgs. Does it can risk her survival also or its just a normal symptom?

sir I think if she is recommended surgery for ASD or VSD then go ahead for that .If still you are on doubt take second opinion and if she is loosing weight and vomiting are there , she requires urgent attention by physician .
