Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I would like to tell you that you can trust as per your physician prescription, but if your mother has any medical illness like diabetes or hypertension and symptoms of short breath along with chest discomfort then it's recommended for you to get her a basic cardiac workup done which includes and ECG, echocardiography, and treadmill test to evaluate if any heart disease is underlying.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr Bhanu Pratap
