HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your mother looking to the history given here I could say that if your mother had gone through the defibrillator then such symptom is very likely and in my opinion she needs periodic cardiac evaluation test, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
