    dizziness with eating

    This is a new one - I'm suddenly becoming very dizzy and woozy after eating, any amount of anything. It's werid and very scary as I feel the floor moving beneath me, feel like I am on a boat and away to faint... I'm worried as to what's going on? Cant find any info on this anywhere.

    Has this just started for you? Have you had any problems with eating in the past? Any medication?

    Only just started a couple of weeks ago, I have been getting a lot of chest pain/ectopics too but was given the all clear with ecgs. Apparently the chest pain is muscles and heartburn. No medication - well I did start antibiotics yesterday but like I said this has been happening for a fortnight or so.

    I thought my ears might have been clogged so I checked that but no, they seem OK..

    Re: dizziness with eating

    Just try to eat small amounts, frequently. Eat anything that sounds good to you. That's what I had to do. I do like mashed potatoes, so when I had lost 20 pounds from my anxiety, I ate a lot of those with lots of butter. I had a lot of gaggy feelings when I have a lot of anxiety, so could not eat hardly at all for awhile. I do take a small amount of ativan, and that helped a lot. Now with gaining 15 pounds back, I feel better, but there are still days that I can't eat very much.

    I get reactions from eating to. In fact some of my anxiety attacks occur after eating. I find that my heart pounds real bad and I can get the wobbles and shakes.

    I've had numerous blood tests and always come up good.
