What Causes Shortness Of Breath And Fatigue While Having A Coronary Stent?
My husband had a massive heart attack and stint placed in April of 2013. He still has significant shortness of breath if he is in a bent over position (tieing his shoes, picking up objects from the floor) and leaves him fatigued for the remainder of the day. He has seen his cardiologist several times over this issue with no answers

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the breathing symptoms during exertion then it may not be due to cardiac elements but it could be allergic condition and if the cardiac disease ever need to be ruled out then it may requires cardiac evaluation test again, Hemoglobin may be matter of concern and it need to be ruled out too, else it is nothing to worry if the symptoms is not persistence and happening randomly hope this information helps.
