I would say it depends on your average heart rate. I had 88/60..which is perfectly normal for me during surgery or recovery. My average is 115/65. If it is lower than your normal, ask your doctor.

You should call the doctor. Those alerts could be a surge or dip in hormone due to the surgery.

Depending on how long its been since you had your surgery - these things should be addressed as they come.
