I was wondering if other people were having high heart rates that come and go? I know I don't have a leak (had a CT Friday). It goes to 105-120 then will calm down if a relax for a few minutes. Some say after you eat and I do find this happens but I get it other times too. My surgeon didn't really say anything other than he wanted to check for leak cause I had a fever when I went for checkup. Just wondering if anyone else had this and has any information. It didn't start until after surgery.

I personally have not had this happen at all. It may have something to do with your body adjusting to the changes. I believe some peoples heart rates are affected by hormone releases. You make want to follow up with your PCP and have some EKG's done to be on the safe side. Good Luck.

My heart seems to beat fast after I eat. I am three weeks post op. I try and not eat carbs but if I have one cracker with my tuna. My heart starts racing ...I will ask this question to my doc after my next appt

Fever can cause increased heart rate. I also have increased heart rate if I eat to much. I think the body is working hard to digest. I had an echo and stress test before surgery which is tomorrow. Hoping being smaller will help

Thanks everyone your input. I'm trying to track it to see when it occurs so when I do go to Dr I can describe when it happens so we can figure it out. I had a stress test last year and an the EKG before surgery so hopefully it's more food related either imbalance or when I eat.
