Heat flashes?

Anyone get really hot after eating? Any idea what causes this?

What have you been eating? If you are having something spicy-that may cause it. I wish that would be the case for me, I have been cold since surgery due to the blood thinners we had to take.

I've been cold too...probably from the blood thinners...and lack of calories. Must be something you are eating...cause I am freezing...

Is it after every meal? Could it be that you've introduced a new food into your menu? I only experienced it a couple of times if I ate too fast.

all solid meals. nothing spicy just eggs and yogurt

For me, a sign I've overeaten or that my blood sugar is going nuts is that I get hot and a bit lightheaded.

My husband gets hot after every meal, no matter what he eats. He's never been sleeved - it's just the way his body works. He heats up like a furnace while he's digesting food.

I hope you figure it out. Do you have anything else going on at the same time that could be related, like dizziness or a heavy feeling in your chest?

WELL...I was laughing as I saw this topic because last night I made the fatal mistake of trying to step up my game on my chilli and decided to drop an entire packet of chilli powder in there...BIG mistake, after eating the chilli I looked like I came straight out of the sauna. I think the hot feeling might also have something to do with metabolic distribution and fuel basically. Who knows...everyday I learn something.

Today, after work, I went to a local restaurant and decided to order a bowl of the lobster bisque. It was always my favorite before surgery. I got about 1/8 th of the way into the bowl and started to get super hot. The more I ate, the hotter I got. By the time I was done (I ate about 3/4 of the bowl) and got up, I had sweat through my sweater and jeans! I felt like I was going to vomit the whole way home! I went directly to bed and took a long nap. I guess I was not ready for a "restaurant experience!"
