Question:
Will they still allow surgury if I was told that I have periods of fast heart rates?

That's called tachycardia. Yes, you will still be allowed surgery. You will be a higher risk, but you will be allowed. See my first profile sharon brittain for more info on that...

Your surgeon may require cardiac clearance before he does surgery. You may need to be seen by a cardiologist, who may order tests to determine what kind of tachycardia you have. (Not all types of tachycardia are benign).If he says you are oka for surgery, that will satisfy your surgeon.
