HI,
The first thing to find out is if this is true ischemia and Your mother should see a cardiologist for a stress test(or other diagnostic test) as soon as possible to find out if/where she has hidden heart disease. Ischemia is caused by decreases in blood flow and is related to clots, plaque in the vessels or spasms in vessels. The only way to know the cause of the ischemia is with further cardiac testing. Diabetes very often causes heart disease, so you should have your mom evaluated soon.
take care.
