Hi
Welcome to HCM ,
your mother chest pain more suggestive of decrease blood supply to heart not related to valve problem , and angiogram will tell us about blood supply of heart ,
valves batter information obtain by 2 D Echo test ,
go ahead with angiogram and further treatment plan will be decided after angiogram ,
adopt healthy eating habits ,
keep her happy ,
take care
