Does your mother have congestive heart failure? Here is an article that might help you to deal with this better www.earthclinic.com/CURES/congestive-heart-failure.html There are other articles on the net as well pertaining to this condition. I would find a naturopathic or a holistic doctor. Good luck.

I can't find anything on water retention in the heart. If you know the name of it you could search for it. Or I could search for you if I knew the name of her illness. This must be very distressing for you and your family as well, to say nothing of how your mother must feel. I wish I could help you.

It is hard to tell because I am not a doctor but I think you can seek the help or opinion of other doctors. They might have other alternative solutions.

every doctor we go will react abnormally and simply tell us they cant do anything even a cardioligist (excuse my spelling) and tell us its very rare but they never tell us what it is exactly
