Any advice plz??

Hi all
my first 'anxious' post and im just looking for some advice/reasurrance but please no horror stories i make them up enough in my head :blush:
Im having a really hard time coming off tablets at the mo, its to complicated to explain, but im having really bad experience every time i eat food, its so putting me off wanting to eat!
Im getting a feeling like my whole body is 'pulsing' after i have eaten so its like palpatations just all over, this lasts for a good few hours after eating, my stomache was also tying in knots after eating but i seem to be controling that by taking medication for irratable bowel before food.
My biggest problem is a few months ago a 'GOOGLED' the symptm's and the first thing i read <and only thing>!!! was eating can raise your blood pressure, i suffer with high blood pressure so it scared me and i never read anymore.......i so wished i had'nt saw what i did :unsure:
I sitting here writting this and im so scared someone is gonna come back with a reply of thats what it is and i need to see the doc....im not to good with going the doctors about the blood preasure thing, its always been a BIG fear of mine.
Please if any one has any positive thoughts on this problem id really appriciate it.......thanks xxxlinda xxx

hi nicola
to be honest i dont know what im trying to ask either, i think i just want to know if any one else suffers like this?
just want to add i also suffer with bad stomache acid too, and all this is just driving me up the wall with everything i've been going through for the past few months xxlinda xx

I get anxious after meals too because I know it raises blood pressure. But try not to worry, it's normal for blood pressure to rise after eating, that's how our bodies work :)

thanks for your reply jmoid :) i wish our bodies wernt so complicated sometimes, and i wish our minds wernt so clever and there was a switch to turn them off when they get annoying and start telling us things we really shouldn't be worrying about :winks: hope your well? xxlinda xx

Ahh ok so are you worried that your blood pressure goes high after eating?

If so then that is completely normal
