Hello,

Dizziness after fat meals is caused by a drop of blood pressure in the brain as the blood accumulates in the abdominal vessels. In your case the numbness in the arm is a reaction to strong emotions. In such cases, the blood pressure elevates significantly.

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

Regards,
