does anyone suffer heart racing after eating? i also get heartburn and stomach problems too but the fast heart rate is really bothersome, I'm not sure if it's my anxiety or my poor unhealthy diet that is causing them. thanks

Hi Lee16648,
This is something that i get quite often. I tend to get it more if i am eating out the house, I will not finish a full meal and usually have to walk around and get some fresh air. I have discussed this with my Doctor and she put it down to anxiety as my diet is pretty healthy (Minus a couple of extra coffees which can also contribute to increased heart rate).
What I do if i have to eat out is book in advance, (if possible) and make them aware I am anxious about eating out and the vast majority of the time, staff can be very accommodating. You can also try sticking to certain foods for a little while to see if this has a positive affect. for example less sugar and caffeine?
I hope this helps!
