What Causes Chest Heaviness After Eating?

I quit eating meat a month ago today. I have been eating veggies, but also a lot of carbs and drinking alcohol (nothing new, just thought I would add). For the past few days my stomach is killing me when I eat. I feel like all the food is sitting right on top of my stomach. What could it be?

Hi..

Welcome to healthcare magic.

You have problem of heaviness at chest area after eating that may be because of gastroesophageal reflux problem or over eating or more fatty food consuption or infection or other reasons.

Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis.
Endoscopy examination is helpful for further diagnosis.

I hope this will help you.
Get well soon..
