when I compile that on my computer for an arduino uno I get

Sketch uses 22,598 bytes (70%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32,256 bytes. Global variables use 1,746 bytes (85%) of dynamic memory, leaving 302 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2,048 bytes. Low memory available, stability problems may occur.

I would suspect that is your issue. If you code works without the ROS code in you could try removing all references to Serial to free up memory as the code runs, or try using a board with more memory on it.

When I compile it for Teensy 3.1 a mega board I get

Sketch uses 17,668 23,604 bytes (6%) (9%) of program storage space. Maximum is 262,144 253,952 bytes.
Global variables use 4,868 2,222 bytes (7%) (27%) of dynamic memory, leaving 60,668 5,970 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 65,536 8,192 bytes.

I haven't got you IMU so can't test whether that is the case.

I just had a face palm moment too. You need to remove all the Serial prints you have anyway, as they will interfere with the node trying to make sense of the messages that are being sent to it by the ROS library over the serial port
