My mother was diagnosed with gall bladder stones and is scheduled for surgery, but the doctor noticed something unusual in her heart X-ray and recommended an echo. The echo results came back as 4243 at the clinic but showed 2025 when repeated at a government hospital. Why are the readings so different and what should we do next?

I'm really concerned about my mom who's dealing with a lot of health issues like type 2 diabetes, hypertension, heart failure, and ischemic heart disease. Her doctor has prescribed quite a few meds like Dytor, Monit GTN, Orfer XT, Planep, Cardace, Rosucor, Ecosprin, Pantocid, and even insulin and the duolin inhaler. Now, she's been given tryptomer 10 mg, and I'm worried about whether it's really safe for someone with heart failure to take this. Can you help shed some light on this for me?
