While your prior test results might have shown normal results, persistent vomiting and a rapid heart rate after eating isn’t something to ignore. These symptoms could be indicative of a range of issues that warrant further exploration. The fact that you can tolerate liquids and small snacks but not larger meals suggests something might be affecting your digestive process or causing a gastric motility disorder. Conditions like gastroparesis or gastritis can sometimes cause these symptoms, or it might be an issue with your esophagus or another gastrointestinal concern.

Additionally, given your previous high blood pressure reading, it’s important to consider whether there’s a relation between your cardiovascular health and these symptoms. Persistent symptoms like these warrant a more comprehensive evaluation. Returning to your doctor or possibly a specialist like a gastroenterologist would be wise. Meanwhile, keeping a detailed diary might help. Note what you’re eating, when symptoms occur, and any accompanying issues like nausea or stress, it could help the doctor pin down the problem.

If your heart rate accelerates significantly or you experience any other symptoms like dizziness, shortness of breath, or chest pain, this could be a more serious sign requiring immediate attention. In such cases, seek emergency medical care straight away. For the time being, sticking to bland and easily digestible foods, and avoiding large meals might minimize symptoms. Make sure you stay hydrated. But again, it’s crucial that this issue is treated with urgency and professional medical supervision.
