What Is The Life Expectancy Of An Elderly Person Suffering With Heart Stroke?
My grandmother is 83 years old and just had a major heart attack. As of today only 20 percent of heart is functioning. Her kidneys have also failed and is also coping with COPD. Her blood pressure is not stabilizing. What is the possible life expectancy for her with her current symptoms?

Hi,
That is difficult to say. Considering her age and comorbidities, her life expectancy is not long.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Anders Mark Christensen, General Surgeon
