A member asked:

If im not getting enough oxygen to my heart would it cause numing in the lips and short of breath. my last test was abnormal and this may be the cause?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Heart problem: When the heart muscle is weak or there are problems with the heart valves shortness of breath with exertion occurs. Sometimes the lips can have a bluish tint due to low oxygenation of tissues. Your cardiologist is the best person to advise you of your condition.
