>Non-allergic chronic rhinitis is what Ina believed to be causing most of her symptoms, along with her shitty lifestyle
>Barlow's Syndrome, (a heart valve defect), causes fatigue, arrhythmia, shortness of breath while exercising, migraines and inability to focus
>This is difficult to discover since so many other likely things could cause these symptoms
>If left untreated, Barlow's Syndrome can lead into congestive heart failure due to fluid buildup
>Early congestive heart failure causes severe fatigue, trembling, wheezing while exercising, severe migraines, sleep apnea, coughing in the middle of your sleep, chest pains, drastic lack of appetite, and nausea caused by eating too quickly
>A common "home remedy" for early and normal CHF is drinking caffeine, as it helps remove fluids and helps reduce body pains at this stage
>These are all symptoms that occur much more frequently with less serious illnesses too so it's hard to discover without proper equipment, and the one who's sick could live normally without realizing anything still
>If left untreated, CHF occurs which compounds these symptoms and can cause pulmonary edema, but is still possible to "fix" and "mediate" with lifestyle changes, albeit a complete overhaul.
>When CHF is degrading into advanced CHF, these symptoms begin to appear even while at rest and with a much higher frequency
>If left untreated STILL, advanced CHF becomes irreversible and even surgery can only "manage" the problem, with the symptoms permanently remaining unless a complete heart transplant occurs
>Fatigue sets in even while laying down but chest pains and apnea make it painful to sleep; caffeine goes from being "helpful" to being "harmful" as it begins to stimulate the heart too harshly, and breathing becomes difficult with any form of exercise beyond a light walk

So to tl;dr
>Ina is on the verge of advanced congestive heart failure caused by Barlow's Syndrome, which was left undiagnosed and untreated for years due to Ina's shitty and stressful lifestyle and other health and lifestyle issues. Unless Ina fixes herself, she'll irreversibly damage her heart even with surgical options
