hi,welcome to HCM
i think your mom having recurrent cough with chest pain with the h/o chemo therapy before 5 yrs, required x-ray chest and sputum examination to rule out secondary metastatis in lung and other pathology like infection/pneumonia
,tuberculosis patch etc...then consult to phyisician thanks
