HEART RHYTHM COMMUNITY
Arrhythmia's after eating!

Arrhythmia's after eating!

I seem to get really bad palpitations after eating and my heart beat is usually stronger and more forceful.  I've been checked out by quite a few ER doctors in the last year or two and they did a number of tests including chest xrays, EKG, blood tests and they have all come back normal.  I just don't know what could be causing this and it's driving me insane.

Suggest you search for - Arrhythmia caused by vagus nerve - I have this as well and believe it may be related to small hiatal hernia/non-acid reflux GERD.
esophagus/vagal irritation can cause your symptoms.

Yes, I too get an elevated heart rate and short of breath after eating.  As curmudgen said, it is likely related to the vagus nerve so get your stomach checked out for any underlying issues that you can correct and it may help alleviate the symptoms for you.
