brandimichellexo 63 Posted September 17, 2019 I’ve noticed the days following surgery, my heart date has been a little higher than normal. Its normally between 70-85 but now it’s like mid to high 90s... when I’m in heat, it’s over 100, not but much. Anyone have this happen? I have no idea if the blood thinner will make it high or not.

momof3_angels 465 Posted September 17, 2019 It could be lots of things early after surgery, including pain, dehydration, fighting off potential infection and more. Keep an eye on it, but I wouldn't worry too much unless it either keeps getting higher or you have other symptoms. Monitor your temp, take pain meds as needed, and hydrate!Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app 1 Bastian reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KarenLR75 516 Posted September 17, 2019 I'm on a blood thinner but also still weigh a LOT. Mine ranges from high 70's and then will spike up to high 90's but this has stayed fairly consistent before and after surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GradyCat 3,695 Posted September 17, 2019 You're still healing, so it's bound to be off-normal. 1 Bastian reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heart activity eating pain nausea excitement being upset etc. If it is pounding in your chest get it checked out by your gp.

ahillig 136 Posted September 27, 2019 My heart rate is typically in the 70s and while in the hospital I was in the 90s to low 100s for most of my stay. Your body just underwent major trauma so it's normal for your heart to pump a little faster while your body heals. There is a lot of inflammation caused during surgery and one way your body compensates is the increase the heart rate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Briswife15 890 Posted September 28, 2019 Mine was high in the hospital from dehydration even though I was on an IV! When they gave me a large volume of liquid my heart rate went down. Now, 6 months post bypass, my heart rate is slow!! Averages 55. Go figure!Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
