Spacey after eating?

Does anyone here get spacey after eating?? It's kind of like a brain fog feeling, but I would describe it more as spacey.

I have babesia and I wonder if it is something to do with my oxygen and when I eat there is more blood/oxygen used to digest the food (I also get a lot of air hunger)? I am on a mostly paleo diet and eat a salad for lunch most days, so I don't think it is a reaction to the type of food.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

YES absolutely. So much so that I barely eat all day, practically fast, so that I can function in the world, and then mostly eat in the evenings (terrible solution I know, but it's the only way I can get my responsibilities attended to during the day!!!). I have babesia, too, but actually attribute this symptom to gut issues. It's come to my attention that I have opportunistic infections besides the tick-borne stuff in my gut at this point, particularly yeast, and I think for me these are the culprits.

I'm hardly one to give advice given my terrible solution but.... small high protein meals throughout the day?

Thanks for the responses! I know what you mean Marigold33 and often put off eating while at work as long as I can!! I am completely gluten free and mostly Paleo, so I don't think it is the food I am eating. But maybe it is yeast overgrowth?? Are any of you also treating the yeast?

Thanks!!

Oh wow sounds like you can really relate. Yeah my understanding is that if you have an overgrowth of yeast in your gut, no matter what food you eat you'll feel that fogginess (though of course some foods are still much worse than others). I eat a raw veggie diet to reduce the fogginess as much as possible but it's still there. I just started a yeast treatment and was surprised at how severe a reaction I had. Seems like yeast is a major issue for me at this point. There's been a lot of threads on this lately, mostly named "nystatin" because that's what people seem to be taking for it.
