Any one having rapid heart rate after eating???

It seems after I eat most meals my heart races for about 30 minutes and it is very uncomfortable.  I did figure out that when I eat or drink anything with sugar in it is far worse and scary so now I eat only sugar free.  But, why is my heart racing when I eat the regular foods? Anyone else having this experience?

I have no idea what causes this but it happens to me all the time. It is a scary feeling. I wish I would have remembered to mention this to my Dr when I went in last week but I forgot about it. I may have to make another appt if it continues, I don't want to wait another month to discuss it with him because it is starting to concern me.

Sorry your both experiencing this but I would think it would warrant a call to your surgeon. I definitely would not wait. Hope you find out soon and resolve this. Good luck!

I wonder if it's stomach acid kicking up and causing a type of heartburn? Or possibly a reaction to carbs...some VSG'ers do experience a level of "dumping syndrome". Rapid heart beat is a symptom of that. I'd definitely put a call in to the surgeon. And let us know what he says!
