I'm booked in to have breast implants, over the muscle with no lift in 2 weeks. I've recently started to have heart palpitations on and off. I've been to see my Doctor and she says it probably been due to my lifestyle change of a stressful job and also I've recently started to have my period again due to my contraceptive implant coming to an end. My doctor has booked me in for an ECG but it's not for another 2 months and my surgery is in 2 weeks. Do you think this will be a problem?

Answer: Heart Palpatations and BA Thank you for your question. My advice is to request that your primary care physician communicate with your plastic surgeon regarding his/her concerns regarding your scheduled ECG and your upcoming surgery. Best of luck.

Answer: Elective surgery Thanks for your inquiry, see if your plastic surgeon can discuss your situation with your medical doctor. I routinely will discuss any medical concerns I have about my perspective patients with their primary care physician. This gives both the patient and me the piece of mind that everything was considered before proceeding with elective surgery. Good Luck.

Answer: Heart palpitations before breast augmentation, a problem? Breast augmentation is a great surgery but it is elective and should not be done until medical concerns are addressed. Your recent heart palpitations may prove to be nothing serious, but should be properly evaluated before your breast surgery in case there is a cardiac problem. You should never feel rushed into a breast surgery. Be safe and good luck.
