IN the given situation of Your of your mother,she seems to have suffered from-Atrial
fibrillation with CCF with meningioma with low sodium levels with basal atelactasis left lung with
hydrothorax due to CCF?
Dear,the facts show that she mostly had undetected and missed out adrenal insufficiency/ or
adrenal fatigue for her age, from stressful cardio-respiratory problems with age added Atrial Fibrillation-which was lately diagnosed.
Meningioma does not seem to be causing
hyponatremia in your mothers case.
Other causes for this precipitation of
shortness of breath with coughing could be -aspiration pnuemonia, from reclining position,
