Hello,

I think this shortness of breath when you exert yourself is a warning sign from your heart that it does not support this exert.

You need to be careful as long as you had 2 stents placed last year and are on blood pressure and blood thinner meds.

Please keep monitoring your blood pressure, and record the results as a reference. And have another cardiac check-up with your cardiologist to ensure everything is ok.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
