Hello!
Thank you for the query.
Headaches after skipping a meal is most likely caused by low blood sugar level. Other symptoms like nervousness, sweating, shaking can also appear. You can easily check it by measuring your blood sugar level next time such headache will appear.
Your nausea after some meals can be caused by acid reflux disease or peptic ulcers. Food allergy is also possible. I suggest you to visit your doctor and consider upper GI endoscopy and allergy tests.
Hope this will help.
Regards.

Hello Praveen,
Thanks for coming to HCM. Your problems are due to decreasing blood sugar level when you skip meals. They are symptoms of hypoglycemia; always eat some snack & energy drinks if when you are likely to skip meal due to any reason. Otherwise carry food with you if you go out where food arrangement is not available. Please ensure when you eat outside that the food is not stale & is properly cooked. Avoid street food which doesn't look clean & hygienic.
Wish you good health!
