Question 2

my 7 year old son experiences heavy and fast heart beats after eating a meal?

Accepted Answer

Holter: There are several possibile mechanisms for this condition. Swallowing may alter the autonomic tone , as can digestion. Atrial distension can result in fast heart beat after meals. Most experts recommend a holter 24 hour monitor to document the type of rhythm. If atrial, ablation may cure the condition.

Question 3

sometimes i get like 3 very strong heart beats, then it continue it's normal rythm and sometimes it continue fast but not strong some minutes.  and sometimes i get tachycardia after eating... is this something normal?

Accepted Answer

: It may be harmless premature atrial or ventricular premature beats. They can be more prevalent during or after eating due to changes in blood flow,heart rate and blood pressure. I feel it's important to determine the nature and extent of your heart rhythm changes during palpitations. Wearing an outpatient heart monitor would determine this. Discuss with your MD.

Question 4

experience tight band like feeling around chest, tachycardia/forceful heart beat, weak ... after eating. lasts a while. what can cause this?

Accepted Answer

Chest pain after eat: If the symptoms occur only after eating  -  makes me think less of a cardiac cause.   Sounds more like a hiatal hernia or GE reflux.  A hiatal hernia may press on the nerves around the heart causing your symptoms.    I might suggest that you see your family doctor  - get an EKG to exclude ongoing heart ischemia and consider an UGI x-ray or a barium swallow x-ray.    Good luck.
