Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns about.
Shortness of breath can be due to enlarged uterus compressing the lungs , or can be due to any heart or lungs pathology.
Heaviness in the arms can be due to generalized weakness.
I would suggest you to consult a cardiologist for getting properly examined, investigated including echo done and get appropriate treatment.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health and.
