Why has my mother been so sensitive to food lately?

I'm a little concerned for my mother. For the past several months, every time she eats, her body reacts violently. It doesn't matter what it is or when she ingests it. She always feels woozy and off-balance until her food settles. In her words, “… it’s really euphoric.” Her doctors tested this, too, but they can't find anything wrong with her. Could you please tell me what's going on?

    Has she been tested for diabetes? This can happen in people who are prediabetic. A sudden rush of food can make you feel lightheaded.
