Anyone else notice the anxiety peaks after meals?

Even healthy meals.

Digestion and anxiety and heart palps..must strongly be linked..because when i have digestive issues stomach upset etc. My symptoms are much worse than when i haven't eaten.

I tell you what?! I don't have an answer to that but I want to know the same thing. I utterly get the same weirdness or anxiety after eating meals or certain things. It sometimes leave me afraid to want to eat because I either feel anxiety or stomach just doesn't agree or some type of symptom happens when I eat.

Its all tied together. When my stomach is calm.so is my anxiety.

Hi. I have the same issue. My stomach is making noises all day now. I have waves of shortness of breath and clammy hands. Of course, this causes fear and panic. I had a colonic and started probiotics to help with digestion. It helped a little. GasX seems to help too. I am seeing a doctor in february. I will let you know what i find out. All the best:)

Yes please do update..I woke up this morning with bad stomach upset chest and back pain. That is still going on..Its maddening..like is this gas or my heart? Do i go to the ER again or just take some sort of gas meds..i took tums that helped a little but it is still there. Neverending worry and pain. I know there is hope for all of us. We just need the right path. Hang in there. :-)
