I'm really worried about my mom who's 68. She's been diagnosed with mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and has an overall LVEF of 50-50. They also mentioned grade diastolic dysfunction. I'm just trying to understand, is this something serious that we need to be concerned about?

I'm really worried about my mom, she's 40 and has been dealing with rheumatic heart disease. She had valve replacement surgery and is now on various medications, including something called cotton, but she's still facing issues like shortness of breath and a fast heart rate. I'm wondering if it's safe to try Ayurvedic treatment instead? Are there any risks if she stops her allopathy medicine in favor of Ayurvedic options?

Switching from allopathy (conventional medicine) to Ayurvedic treatment for a serious condition like rheumatic heart disease, especially after valve replacement surgery, should be done cautiously and under the guidance of healthcare professionals. Ayurvedic medications may have interactions with the current medications she is taking, so it is important to consult with her cardiologist before making any changes.
