Dizzy After Eating

Hi all,

I've not been able to put my finger on it before now, but I've noticed that usually following lunch which will consist of a white tuna mayo roll and maybe a sausage roll or a bag of crisps, I've felt drained and if I go to walk then I feel very dizzy and am conscious that I must not pass out. Does anybody else had experience of this or do you think it could be anxiety related?
 
Hi @Lusk

Do you have diabetes? Are you on any medication?
 
I know some people without diabetes say carbs can make them feel sleepy, but you've mentioned feeling faint when walking after a meal.

It would be best to speak to a doctor about that so you can get some basic general tests done to rule out other conditions like low blood pressure, etc, etc
