My surgeon said if I have any pain in my chest to contact them. Not saying it’s anything serious but I would definitely call to make sure.

I agree, worth a call to your doc. Hopefully it's just part of the healing process...

I agree with everyone. I generally get that same feeling when I’m full.

I had the same feeling after surgery, my doctor wanted to do an EKG to make sure all was well, but then she ran it by another doctor who stated this feel is totally normal and to keep walking and keeping hydrated! But yes call ur Doc, and best of luck!

I have a pain in my chest as well and at my post op appointment today my surgeon said it's a muscular thing and not to worry. The more walking I do and continual healing will eventually alleviate the discomfort. That's not to say yours is the same thing- you should definitely talk to your doctor about it!
