A member asked:
Can your heart stop from working to hard due to blood clot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but not often: Your heart can stop working if that clot breaks off and travels to the main arteries that leave the heart and enters the longs. This clot will cause the right side of your heart to push against increased pressure. This increases stress can eventually lead to your heart stopping.
