Gas does not travel to the heart. Nor does it have anything to do with tingling and numbness throughout the body. The symptoms and terminology you use is often used by hypochondriacs with no medical knowledge but unfortunately they can occasionally also indicate an underlying disease.

remember that numbness and tingling are brought about by nerve stimulation, a gas or a bubble traveling through the heart can never ellicit a nerve impulse such as a tingling or numbness, if it impairs the circulation and brings about hypoxia and ischemia of muscle fibers eventually damaging the nerve endings a tingling sensation may ensue, but such a thing is impossible.

the only gas that travels to the heart is dissolved in blood. it does not lead to tingling or numbness.

Nitrous oxide, which is a gas, does have a similar effect on the body.
