so yesterday after eating a big meal I felt like I couldn't breathe and started getting heart palpitations my dr checked my heart a weak ago it sounded fine but I'm freaking out its giving out I'm trying to distract myself
You're fine. Trust me. You describedmw the past six months. You just have major indigestion going on it sounds like.. Move around a bit to get that gas out, us moving around actually helps with the heart palps.
It could just be indigestion after eating a big meal you can get indigestion and heart burn and palpitations due to indigestion
Anxieties can cause palpitaions too
You will be fine just eat smaller meals

maybe your heart was working a bit harder to digest the meal and circulate blood and nutrients around the body.
Anxiety can cause indigestion and acid reflux / gas after eating big meals or just all the time. Me personally if I eat big meals I do get heard palpitations... So I eat smaller meals now and I eat slower too so I digest my food properly.
When your in a state of anxiety your body focuses blood to areas of importance and the digestion system isn't as important as your organs so that's why you can get indigestion / gas / acid reflux from anxiety.
But overall anxiety will cause heart palpitations / chest pain. I just noticed it happens more when I eat big meals. A good supplement for chest pain / palpitations is magnesium.. They seriously reduce them and they aren't as painfull. I would reccomend cleaning up your diet as it has a big factor in your anxiety / stress levels. Stop any fast food / processed foods / sugars / junk foods / caffein / stimulants / drugs / alchohol. All of these can start anxiety and panic attacks in the short and longterm. I would reccomend doing meditation for anxiety found on YouTube. Good luck !
I do eat a lot of chilies lol I just hate feeling like this
I always feel like I can't breathe after eating loads, you're not alone!
