Go to the Doctor!: Your mom could have suffered a heart attack or even a life-threatening heart arrhythmia (not beating right or in sync). Do not delay...Get your mom to the doctor immediately! she needs and EKG and probably to see a cardiologist for a holter monitor at the very least. But in the interim, she is at a high risk of a major heart attack.
