Pre health condition: Your mother had an angioplasty with two stents. If she had a heart attack then her heart may be weaker. If she had stents placed and was not having a heart attack then it may be related to her pre health condition. She has coronary artery disease. Her heart may no longer be as healthy and that makes you weak. If she was given a beta blocker make sure to get blood pressure checked.

Good question: Fixing one problem does not mean that everything else will be normal. Mom needs to talk to her family physician to track down something else causing her to be weak.
