I keep feeling my heart beat. It feels like its beating in my throat. It's a very weird feeling. Especially to hear it. Has this happen to anyone else?

Yep, weird hah. I asked doctors about it, they didn't seem too concerned. 3 weeks out and it still comes and goes.

Only when Im in pain.

I have never felt that sensation. I would be calling my Dr. right away just to be sure.

Hi Michelle I'm so happy to see u r fine. I think your body is just responding to the change it just had. U just removed 85% of your stomach. I'm not a Dr. so u ask your surgeon just to be sure. But I know God didn't c u through to let anything happen to you. I'm glad that u can feel your heartbeat it just means your ALIVE lol. U will be back to normal in a few days. Just take 1 day at a time rest ,walk for a few minutes a day n don't b afraid to take pain meds if u have some discomfort . Stay in touch I will be looking out for your posts. By the way r u from NYC ?

Thank you blessings. I been feeling good today. Its been my best day. You are right God did bring me thru this. He kept me safe. You posts have helped me so much. I'm from Kentucky.

Thanks everyone for your post. I love coming on here and having people who I feel like I know an who understands me.

You may be feeling some effects of dehydration. It an cause your heart to beat faster and/or harder. It should go away as you get better about hydration and just as you heal! Always check with your doc but I'd bet money you're fine. Good luck!

Glad to hear you are ok! I thought about you yesterday! What did you feel like when you first woke up? How was the first night?

Good I'm happy you r having a good day I told u it would b ok n u will be complaining just like the rest of us . Just put it out there no matter what it is I'm sure someone has been there n done that. And I do mean everything there is nothing to be embarrassed about on chats. We learn from each other n pass on good info for all.

First night I slept most of it. My surgery didnt happen till almost two. So i was sleepy most of the evening. Yesterday was rough but today been much better. Thanks everyone for being here with me.

Yep. I had that, too. I had surgery exactly one week before you. It lasted a few days and has now gone away. It may be your blood pressure being elevated due to the pain. If it really scares you or doesn't go away with a couple of days, you could call the doctor. I felt it especially when I was laying down. Like it was in my neck. Like listening to the ocean through a shell.
