What Causes Dizziness After Meal?

My mother is having dizzy spells after she eats. This has happened a couple of times recently. Earlier this year she had bleeding from her rectum which they semi-diagnosed as colitis I believe. She has some heart trouble (a couple of angiograms) and has a stint. Her heart doctor says her heart is good. I am concerned about the dizzy spells and an wondering if there is some connection between her digestive system and the dizziness.

hello,thanks for your query, patients on stents will be on blood thinners, they do bleed during any alteration of bleeding parameters.

her dizzispells could be due to hypotension secondary to bleeding due to active fissures.

first check her pt/ inr values, check with cardialogist follower by surgeon.

hope I have answered your query, all the best, take care.
