What Causes Nose Bleeds, Shortness Of Breath And Low Pulse Rate
My mother is experiencing water retention, nose bleeds, shortness of breath, low pulse rate...she had 5 bypasses back in November. Any suggestions of what may be causing this? Her heart doctor doesnt seem to have any answers. The nose bleeds were going on before the bypass surgery. She is 68 years old, 5 ft 3 inches, weighs about 200 lbs.

i would recommend a few blood tests like renal function tests and liver function tests. Also get an echocardiograph to know her heart function.
A diagnosis can be made only after the results of theses tests.
