carlie9475 0 Posted May 11, 2011 Had surgery may 4. Yesterday started having this feeling like my heart was beating in my head, I drank and it went away then it came back. Today same thing is happening. I called the dr they said that's what it has to be, for me to keep drinking and call tomorrow if it still continues.......anyone had this happen? Maybe I'm not eating enough? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cindy C 150 Posted May 11, 2011 I had my surgery on a Tuesday. Went home on Wednesday. On Thursday morning, I ended up back in the hospital dehydrated. After a swallow test and a couple of IV bags I was fine and went home. Forced myself to drink after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reverie 49 Posted May 11, 2011 Probably a combination of dehydration/lack of calories. Focus on drinking more. Sip sip sip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
