Tachycardia, fatigue and weakness after eating

Tachycardia, fatigue and weakness after eating.
I have been experiencing tachycardia, fatigue and weakness after eating. The problem is getting worse.
My heart rate is between 130 and 140 after a meal. I am extremely tired to point of not being able to concentrate, not being able to stand up very long, and I feel like I could pass out. I have been lying down after meal. Heart rate gets back to normal but it can take up to an hour for this to happen. I was on a cardiac monitor for one month and the tachycardia was captured. The cardiologist, heart doc I see, said to take Verapmil for this problem. It has not helped.
I have discussed this problem with my Family Doc also. Neither have said much. I have researched this issue on internet and have not found much. I need advice and help. I do not know where to turn at this point in time.

I hope you feel better now.
I had this problem several times in the last few years.
Well actually sometimes it was about 2 hours after the meal.
But last year it got bad, I would get tachycardia before I was even finished eating (I eat slow takes me 30 minutes). I was felling like passing out. The cardiologist did test and did not see anything and family doctor was too busy with its own cancer so..
So, I am wondering if you found any answer, since it might help me also.
It is very hard to find some help.
We have to stick togeter.
