Short of breath

Short of breath

I recently had a double bypass operation and recovered pretty quickly, about rwo months after my surgery, I developed shortness of breath and get very winded when I walk or do any kind of exercise, it is worse at night when I am laying down, all this happened after my surgery, could the bypass have anything to do with it?

Sorry to hear of the post operation problem.  The harvested veins may have occluded or there is a blood clot partially blocking an adequate blood/oxygen supply.  You should not have sob!!  Or there could be a heart problem not directly associated with the by-pass.
