Can a person be put under for elective mommy makeover surgery if they have a heart arrhythmia?

July 19, 2016
Asked By:LeapsnBounds in Sherwood Park, AB

In not sure if it is the stress and excitement of seeing doctors and deciding on this surgery but the last day or so I have felt a flutter in my chest. Is it normal under anxiety for this to happen before surgery? Would it pose a problem for the anesthesiaologist or going through with surgery?
