What Causes Heart Palpitations After Eating?
Usually after eating I sit down, then recently starts beating faster like something is pushing on my stomach and sometimes just standing turning from side to side, I take a little mint or deep breath and the heart goes back to its regular beat. Is this a serious thing?
