I get this too after eating too much. Or drinking too much. I’ve always contributed it to my stomach being to full and pushing up on the diaphragm. It subsides after I start to digest. Pots is usually a brisk increase in heart rate triggered after standing up from a lying position.

I get a racing heart after eating that started about halfway through my pregnancy and has continued even though I’m 18 months postpartum. I have not been able to figure out any reason why even with all my googling. What is POTS?? I’ve seen some thing but now I’m worried I have it. I notice it mostly when I eat a lot of carbs or sugar

@TaylorFroe I think is cause by gassy stomach and acid reflux specially after a big meal but today I saw a video on tiktok where someone said pots can also cause it and freaked me out you should go to the doctor and check just to make sure The symptoms of POTS include but are not limited to lightheadedness (occasionally with fainting), difficulty thinking and concentrating (brain fog), fatigue, intolerance of exercise, headache, blurry vision, palpitations, tremor and nausea.

@TaylorFroe Try to no eat big meal through the day but small one wait 30 minutes then continue to eat more specially if they are greasy food don’t lay down right away after eating your last meal should be 3 hours before bed time to avoid acid reflux try this see if it help I been to the doctor and they don’t think I have it but still scary I was referred for the till table test but I denied because that test is so stressful

Health ocd is really bad today
Hi everyone. I take hydroxyzine 50 mg every night for anxiety for about five months. I’ve been experiencing at least one heart palpitation a day so of course I went down my googling spiral and saw people say it gave them cardiac arrest? I’m only 19 but I’m so so scared. Please someone help me.

Chest pain
I just had a really awful chest pain that felt like my chest was exploding and im really terrified. I feel like maybe it was a heart attack but idk. I've had many ekgs and a chest x ray and they don't find anything wrong with me. Idk what this means anymore im so sick of being scared that ill die. Can anyone relate at all? It comes out of nowhere
