In 1984 my entire body was swollen, I was short of breath, my doctor want me to seee a psychologist. I had many tests and finally they found that my pericardiuim haad calcified. It's called constrictive (or restrictive) percarditis. As a result I had my percardium removed. I was given a neww life. But now, last year it all came back, my heart is covered with calcium and they don't knnow what to do. the calcium has invaded my heart. I take diuretics. Perhaps this is your Mom's problem. One of the causes of this ailment is T.B. I have never had T.B. Anyway it sounds like a heart related problem to me. Good luck. Does your Mother need a pillow under her head to sleep?
