Cardiologist,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I would like to tell you that predominantly your symptoms are related to gastric reflux disease in which typically after eating your blood pressure decreases and heart rate increase to maintain the blood pressure. It's recommended for you to avoid caffeine containing products and eat small and frequent meals. Kindly consult a Gastroentrologist personally for further management.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Kind Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap
