Hi. I ate breakfast (oatmeal) after 8am. I ate dairy free yogurt after 10:50 am. I didn't eat all as it made me feel bad. I am taking nexium for acid reflux. After 12, I started to feel weak. What could have caused this? My heart started to race?

I've noticed every time I eat oatmeal for breakfast, I feel bloated/gassy afterward all day or for a good part of the day and sometimes even have an upset stomach. Other high-fiber foods don't have that effect. Could that indicate an allergy to oats?
