Bradycardia anyone?



Recommended Posts

My heart rate was always >100 prior to surgery but has been steadily dropping since. Hovering around 55 now. I have the Kardia Mobile EKG (just because I’m a wonk) and EKG’s read normal. Anyone have experience with bradycardia post WL? From what I’m reading, cardiologist would likely just run an EKG.🤷‍♀️

mine's pretty much always between 55-60. Didn't realize this was an issue...

My concern was the fact I’ve always been very high and have lower energy lately. Found interesting article re: WLS, Leptin levels and heart rate:

this doesn't sound like it's anything to really worry about. As I said, mine is always 55-60 and I've never had a health professional say anything (other than a nurse once who said I must exercise a lot)

      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.
