Hi,
The symptoms may be suggestive of a cardiac pathology. However from what you have told thus far, she is not having angina. If she has orthopnea or pnd, then it would be more suggestive. I would advise you to get her checked by a cardiologist. In case you need any immediate advice, you can book an online consult and we can discuss
