[QUOTE="j125, post: 2172029, member: 517067"] Hi All, I am so glad I have found this page! I have been experiencing these symptoms for around 3 years - primarily after big meals and hangovers. Doctors have only really recommended CBT, which worked great for anxiety I had at the start which centered around chest pain and I was having panic attacks etc... but now I don't have much anxiety at all (if any), I just have to put up with the discomfort Main symptons after eating something sugary or a big meal; - heavy heartbeat - can feel my heart beating so hard sometimes that it physically bobs my head - tremor/vibrating type feeling in the face/chest, particuarly the mouth area - irritability - Pain (chest, jaw) - I've had countless ECGs, a stress test,, 24 hour monitor etc. heart is fine (I'm a 27 year old male who's in relatively good shape). - fatigue, feeling really sleepy after meals which has got worse recently Some things that I have found have helped me (but things are quite 'up and down'). - Duloxetine (cymbalta) - i think this has helped since starting last year, although I'm going through a bad patch with my symptons the last couple of weeks - excercise - I think I notice an improvement when i can find time to excercise more reguarly - Autogenic training - I managed to get this on the NHS (they only have the course in london), do some research on it - I found that it really helped with my symptons, but as I say I'm having a bad couple of weeks with my symptons but hopefully it will pass and I'm going to carry on doing more of the exercises to see if it can help further I'm going to discuss this syndrome with my GP and also I am going to mention 'endocrinology' as mentioned above to see if thats something to explore. I am also tempted to ask for something like proponal to help with my heartbeat at times, does anyone take this or something similar? I am absolutely certain I can beat this, as I've had a couple of weeks where I had almost no symptoms, so keep the faith. I've been through some very dark moments over the last three years and I'm still here so keep positive people. [/QUOTE]
