To rebeccaroseu. I would definitely get your mum to have herself checked out. The mere fact she's got heart problems is reason enough as a chesty cough can put extra strain on the heart and can cause fluid on the lungs. Don't worry about being a worried daughter. You obviously love your mum very much. Definitely get her checked up by the doctor and if you're still not happy get her to go to the hospital instead. Better safe than sorry!
