[|Human|] My mother is 81 years old. Coming up on 4 weeks ago, she had was taken to the ER. She was in heart failure, having a heart attack and stroke. Her stroke presented with double vision. She was transferred to OSF Peoria. The next day they did a heart cath and she went into a major stroke with an 8mm blood clot in the right side of the main artery going to her brain. The Dr. had to stop the cath because of almost complete blockage of all main arteries, the aorta and cartoids. He said she also had calcification in her veins. She has 18% heart function. They were able to reverse the major stroke but she is suffering from the first one that she had prior to transfer. What is her prognosis? We aren t getting straight answers yet....thanks!
[|AI|]  Hello and thanks for writing. I can understand your concern and would try to help you in the best possible way. Considering her advanced age and multiple co morbid conditions like heart attack, stroke, a heart functioning around 18% and multiple vessel atherosclerotic disease her prognosis is not very good. You have to understand that having multiple organ involvement is not a good thing and in her case as per the information her organs have been severely impaired. You may expect her to go into congestive heart failure considering her poor heart function and also sooner or later her kidneys may also be involved in the process. I suggest that you may consult a doctor and start palliative care for her so as do decrease the severity of the symptoms and provide temporary relief. Take a good care of her medications a would be on many, and she may even require help with her day-to-day activity.
