What Causes Dizziness And Breathlessness After Having Food?
my wife complains that after eating (even small amounts) that she has difficulty breathing, feels light headed (dizzy) and often feels chilled. Has tried varying foods in diet but no helpful results thus far. Recent endoscopy of upper GI tract came back normal
Consult a physician and get evaluated. We have to rule out possibilities like postprandial angina, a rare condition where angina develop after food intake.
You can take antacids like Pantoprazole for symptomatic relief.
