[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Yes, increased body water can cause Chat Doctor.  Actually increased body water causes Pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs). Pulmonary edema is common in heart failure. Since your mother had angioplasty, diabetes, possibility of heart failure is more. So better to get done 2d echo to rule out heart failure. Best treatment of heart failure is restriction of oral fluids (less than 1 liter) and diuretic
