Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. The given case is beyond the treatment ambit of online concept. If your neurologist says your mother has PTSD, she needs psychiatric treatment as well as rehabilitation therapy. Psychotherapy and meitation and breathing exercises should also do good. Work with your GP and neurologist for good treatment.

In case if you need more explanation in this regard, please post a direct query to me in this website. I am happy to explain.

Hope this answers your concerns.
Good luck.
