hi dear. since you are an cardiac patient i will suggest you to go for regular check ups every three months if possible. get your vitamin b level checked...numbness can happen even in vitamin deficiency. you can take supplements .. its always safe to rule out any cardiac cause. maintain a healthy diet and do some light cardio workout after consulting your docter. hope my answer has helped you. do rate my answer. thank you
