Most people throw a run of PVC's from time to time and never know it. What does your doc say?

Well the surgeon really hasn't said much but I will need a cardiac clearance. But my primary Dr. said many people have them she just wants to see me after surgery and she put me on beta blockers. She really doesn't know my history I just start going to her last month.

Mine are bad I know when I'm having them I feel it and they come frequently they call them bigeminy if I'm spelling it right. I'm just afraid after such a huge shock to my body lord pvc's will get worse.

I have PVCs that are off the chart. I am pre surgery. I also have tachycardia and I am on meds for it. My cardiologist cleared me for surgery and never really said anything about my PVCs after surgery. We really don't know why mine are so strong. Now I am curious.

I have pvc's also. It is just premature vertical beats. If your heart doc isn't worried about them right now.... The surgery should not change them. I have had 4 other surgeries with ad in and pc's... No problem. Just let doc and anesthesia know

I had them bad before. Now 5 months post op they are almost non existent!!! They were bad at first still but slowly they have been going away. Not sure if it is the weight loss or the change in eating but hopefully yours go away too!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
