I have started sweating after eating. Anyone else?

I have been getting hot during and after eating for few years now and found this thread recently. Doesn't matter what I eat as long as is substantial meal such as lunch or dinner 400g or more. I sweat underarms, forehead, face, and it is really annoying. I am going to test for graves disease based on post above. I have been on Mobic anti-inflammatories and Tramadol for back pain. No operations not diabetes or other health issues.

I ask if anyone above who mentioned back pain or other conditions have been on Tramadol for pain or Mobic anti-inflammatories long term?

Hello @rsumsion and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. On Mayo Connect we are not medical professionals and therefore we cannot diagnose health problems. However, we can share our own personal experiences. I also have had, on occasion, the type of hot flash/sweating that you mention following a meal. For me, it seems to be related to a pre-diabetic condition. However, there are other digestive tract diseases that are also known to cause these symptoms.

If I were you, I would have a consult with both a GI specialist(for an upper endoscopy) as well as an endocrinologist. Together they might be able to help you with these symptoms.

Have you previously consulted with either or both of these specialists?

I experience the same sweating after eating. No diabetes, no weight loss surgery. I did have a CABGx3.
