That sounds normal at just 6 days out because your body is still recovering from major surgery.

My incision pain is bearable I have eight gashes all at healing well just a bit sore when I searched for reasons for fast pulse a lot of places talked of a leak and now that has me worried, I don't get winded just sitting down but even walking to the kitchen I can feel my heart beat a lot faster

You're always a little weak, tire easily and a little sore. Your body has gone through a lot recently, be easy on YOU, and daily things should smooth out and get better. If you had a leak, honey, you would KNOW IT, major pain and you would be more than simply winded. I have a stricture in my pouch(rny) and ulcers in my small intestine, and neither are so. polite as your problems. But I am getting better, just a more bumpy trek than average.

Are you getting enough Water? It sounds like you might be a little dehydrated. Do you have a fever? High heart rate is also a sign that you could be getting an infection.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
