>I am a 60 yr old caucasion male ht5-9 wt220 At the time of this message I am experiencing labored breathing, dizziness and pain in my right shoulder. I find that I have to press my breast or shoulder area in order to get a good cleansing breath. I experienced similar problems immediately after the surgery (Dec 1998) and was put on inhalers. They used a vein from my left leg and mamary artery. My question is since they removed my mamary artery could that area be spasming causing these problems or anything else that you've heard of that could be causing these symptoms. I Welcome your response.
