Ok so ill be out 5 months in 2 more days.. and here is my question... Why is it right after i eat a meal, I get hot.. i mean really hot.. like menopausal hot flash hot! It doesn't happen every time.. ive noticed when i eat a little fast or eat to much is when it really happens to the point where i just start sweating uncontrollably.... ANY INFO U HAVE IS HELPFUL.

It happens to me under those same circumstances as well. Not sure why it occurs though.

Are you eating any food with a lot of niacin? Sometimes when I eat food that is high in niacin, I get what's called a "niacin flush" and I feel a little warm and sometimes a little red skin. It usually doesn't last long, maybe 15-20 minutes and isn't dangerous. Peanut Butter does that to me. Try to remember what type of foods you're eating right before this happens, if it is high in niacin, that could be why. Of course it could be something totally different, surely worth checking into and finding out.
