Can I claim medical expenses (for myself) that were paid for by my mother? These expenses have not been previously claimed.

Yes you can claim your medical expenses paid for by your mother.

Please keep in mind that medical expenses have to be claimed within a 12 month period and the final month needs to occur in the filing year - for example medical expenses incurred from November 2016-November 2017 for tax year 2017.
