Since having my tummy tuck on March 01, I was doing fine then about a week ago I started feeling as if I was having anxiety attacks along with heart palpitations after eating food(breakfast,lunch or dinner),chest pain, some lightheadness(or fuzziness) and a general overall feeling of uneasiness,like I am going to die. Yes, I know this sounds like textbook "anxiety attack" but I honestly don't feel like this is it. Any suggestions?

Heart palpitations not related to a tummy tuck done back in 2001

Please see your primary care doctor or your internist for a formal work up. It is unlikely your palpitations are related to your cosmetic surgery done many years ago.
