The normal structure of the disc will be gradually lost in such cases, and there may even be changes in the vertebrae.

Pulmonary edema is a disorder wherein fluid accumulates in the lungs leading to lack of oxygen in the body. The usual cause of pulmonary edema is congestive heart failure (the muscles of the heart are unable to pump blood). In this disorder, the heart has to work extra hard to pump blood, so this adds extra pressure on the blood vessels that are present in the lungs. In a bid to relieve this added pressure, fluid is released into the lungs by the blood vessels.

Very little chance. Angiogram, ECG echo can detect what has already occurred, they cannot predict the future. Cholesterol measurement is advised for prediction, but is almost worthless. Don't rely on check ups, focus on healthy lifestyle. Reduce sugar jaggery alcohol and starchy foods in diet. Balanced diet is healthier than restricted diet. Some mild or moderate exercise. Best wishes.
