then you will want to go to the emergency room immediately as you might be
having a serious allergic reaction to something you ate.

could have a very serious problem that you will want to bring to the attention of a
doctor immediately. This could be a sign of diabetes, which if left untreated could kill

yourself by eating a proper diet and exercising regularly. Some diabetes suffers have

food again, or eat less of it.If you get headaches after eating everyday then you
should see a doctor immediately to rule out diabetes.
