Hot Flashes When Eating?



Recommended Posts

I'm 7 weeks post op, and every time I eat a meal, I get hot flashes. Does anyone else experience this? Does it go away? What causes it?

I'm only 17 days post op but yes! I think though it's usually when I eat too fast.

Does it happen sometimes or all the time?

Me sometimes.

I had my gallbladder removed at the same time due I gallstones I had know about for 2 years. Sometimes I get diahrea and get the hot flashes just before that as well.

I've put it down to digestive upset, things moving too fast.

Unfortunately, it happens to me every time I eat. I've had a hysterectomy and was having some early menopause issues (like hot flashes) before the surgery...just never when I ate. Oh well....I can live with it. The weight is coming off. :D

You may want to try some soy supplements to see if they help. Fat is where we store estrogen so while you are losing rapidly your levels can go a little bunkers. It should settle down once your wright and diet stablizes.
