Headaches, Light Headed, Blotchy skin

After I eat 1 or all 3 things happen!

  1. I get light headed
  2. Headaches
  3. Turn red and get very blotchy all over my face, neck, and chest!

This may occur for 30min.to 4-5hours

My doctor thinks I am crazy, and can’t figure it out!!!

I don’t know what could be the probIem??! It doesn’t sound like a food allergies… I eat pretty healthy, and I work out 3 times a week! I have all parts of the food groups in my diet, but I can’t figure out if one thing is causing it, or if I am eating something that my body is rejecting! I was wondering if anyone has these symptoms, and if they know what the problem may be!?!?

Thanks for your help!

Answer #1

Wow. That is quite bizarre. But there are certain foods that trigger sensitivities and your doctor should be sending you to a specialist to help you figure this out. I mean, doesn’t it kind of interfere with your everyday living?

Answer #2

I would guess that you’re allergic or sensitive to something you’re ingesting. How long after you’ve eaten do you get the symptoms? When did it start happening and are there any times it doesn’t happen?

When it’s diet related, it can be a real pain to figure out. You basically have to eliminate everything from your diet and then slowly bring different foods back in.

But you’re really going to have to be a bit of a detective here, Corrine. Write down everything you eat and drink, for the next couple of weeks, and make detailed notes on all the symptoms that followed. Maybe you;ll see a pattern.
