View allI'm really curious and a bit concerned about something that's been happening to me lately. Every time I finish my lunch, it feels like my heart starts racing more than usual. It's really noticeable, and it only happens after I eat a meal. Just to give you a bit of context, I'm a 53-year-old woman, and I do have a history of thyroid problems. Could this be related, or is there another reason why my heart speeds up after eating?
This could be due to a condition called postprandial tachycardia, which is a rapid heart rate that occurs after eating. In your case, with a history of thyroid issues, it could be related to thyroid dysfunction affecting your heart rate. I recommend consulting with your doctor to adjust your thyroid medication if needed. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) before meals to help control your heart rate after eating.
