Welp, I had to go back to the cardiologist yesterday. I devoloped a thumping sensation in my chest and neck, and some pain. They did an EKG, and my heart beat was abnormal, but was abnormal in a regular pattern: 1 regular beat, then 1 early beat, over and over. Also my resting pulse rate was 100. They said this should work itself out, and that a little abnormal HB could be expected after surgery. My dosage of metropolol was doubled (25mg 2x daily) in an effort to bring down my pulse. Any of you have your pulse rate shoot up after surgery? For how long? Thanks
