I just had a tummy tuck 2 days ago and have shortness of breath and tachycardia even when sleeping. Is it normal?

Hello MD80.It is not normal to have shortness of breath and a rapid heart rate after tummy tuck surgery. You need to discuss this concern with your plastic surgeon right away or go into clinic for an evaluation.Good luck. Dr. ALDO 

Your best course of action is to schedule an appointment with your boar certified plastic surgeon for an examination. The symptoms you are presenting are not normal and may be dangerous.

Hi. I would suggest that you contact your doctor as a matter of some urgency and be seen, in person, for an evaluation as your symptoms are not 'normal'.
