Yes these are symptoms and should be taken seriously. Since you cannot drive call 911 and get help. They can check her out and decide if she needs to go to hospital or not. If you are concerned call them. Don't wait. They are qualified and can help you and if this isn't serious they will let you know , it is much much better to be safe than sorry later. Good luck to you both, my prayers go with you dear.

do not hesitate to go to the ER and have her checked out just to be on the safe side

I would take to ER for evaluation. Those are classic signs of a heart attack.

Sounds more like stroke symptoms to me....

Call an ambulance ASAP!! She could be having a heart attack or worse a stroke! God with you!

Ask her if she will let you call an ambulance to take her to the ER...You said she has dealt with heart troubles for quite sometime, so she must know there could be something wrong. If there is, there is a good chance they can make her better...if she waits and has a heart attack..????
Better safe than sorry....If she wont go to help herself, tell her to do it for you!!!!!!!!!!!

Call 911 or whatever the emergency number is where you live. Tell them what you have written here and that you need help. Do what they say and help will come soon. Don't let your Mom tell you NO, just make the call. If you don't have an emergency number, go to a neighbor and ask for help.

Call a cab or an ambulance. Those are symptoms of a heart attack. Hurry!
