Thanks to the several veterans who answered (are still answering) my belching question. As a newcomer I've read many threads in this forum and have not yet seen the following symptom:Occasionally, about an hour after eating, my body seems to lose most of its energy. I have a tremendous desire to simply lie down. I don't feel sleepy or really uncomfortable in any way. I just seem to go limp. This state of affairs lasts for maybe 20 minutes.Bizarre, but true.

That sounds awful. Sorry but I can't help you as of yet I do not have that symptom. Do you know for sure if it is related to IBS???Hope you feel better.Sarah

hello rickb,I HAVE THE SAME SYMPTOMS.. MINE IS FROM LOW-BLOOD SUGAR. OR HYPOGLYCEMIA. I HAVE BATTLE MY DIET FOR YEARS. IF I EAT ALOT OF SUGARY FOODS I GET THE SYMPTOM, OR IF I EAT ALOT OF HIGH CARB. FOOD YOU GET SAME. THAT'S WHAT CAUSES MINE. I AM NOT SURE ABOUT YOURS. SOMETHING YOU CAN LOOK INTO THOUGH. FEEL FREE TO EMAIL IF YOU WANT:tdsrichardson###cs.comTRACEYR

I would look into what Tracy is saying first.

Thanks for the hypoglycemia comment, TraceyR. It turns out that my mother has been suffering with that for years but she never mentioned sudden lack of energy after eating so I didn't think of that disorder in connection with my symptom. I'll keep this possibility in mind.
