What Causes Arrhythmic Heart Beat And Difficulty In Breathing While On Stent?
I ve had a stint put in my heart 2 yrs ago and my heart feels like it s doing flip flops sometimes beats abnormally and It gets hard to breath at times it feels like I m breathing through peanut butter, when that happens I always have a bowel movement and have to massage my left front deltoid and take deep breaths, holding my breath to stop my heart from pounding, or take a nitrostat. I need to mention I had a TIA at 35 yrs old.

Thank you for putting your trust in us
It sounds like you have Angina ( heart strain resulting from decreased blood flow)
please see your doctor/cardiologist immediately.
the fact that you had a TIA increases your risk to develop further embolic events which is multiplied by arrhythmia.
Hope I have convinced you to see you doctor ASAP
please let me know if you need any clarification
hope you feel better .
