Movies And TV Series Are Not Understandable After Eating Certain

Sometimes movies are understandable for just 30 minutes after eating food and then it starts non-foccusing and no understanding of tv series after 30 minutes
Low concentration and sleepiness after large meals can be the cause
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service,
After eating, a good amount of the blood goes to the bowel, causing the brain and other organs to receive less blood than they would usually get. This may cause some changes in brain activity resulting in low concentration and sleepiness and further cause you to have it difficult to concentrate when you watch movies soon after food. This is the case especially if you have large meals.
To help with this, you may need to have frequent small amounts of food during the day. Instead of having 2-3 big meals, you can have 4-5 smaller meals. This will prevent a huge amount of blood going to your stomach and bowel and will allow the brain to be more active. This will be beneficial for sugar control as well, thus better control of diabetes.
I hope this answers your query.

Checking your thyroid is advised
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome back,
If you feel colder than you think you should you may need to be checked for the thyroid function. TSH and FT4 are the tests to make sure the thyroid is working well.

Also I am facing too much sweating
Thyroid problems may as well cause sweating
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome back,
Sweating is a very non-specific symptom and can be caused by so many diseases. The thyroid may as well cause a patient to sweat a lot so it is best to have it checked first.

Because of this, I cannot eat water frequently
just before the meal which is not creating sweating
Water in the empty stomach creates too much sweating. I have to eat something. After eating food, sweating is not happening anymore
that sweetening is creating too much problem and I cannot do any work after this. I have to eat
Because of this, I have to take heavy meals
Thyroid function is normal according to the report- further details below
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome back,
Thank you for the uploaded report. The thyroid function seems normal and I also noticed that you have had previous results that were normal as well.
I understand your concern with too much sweating, but as long as medical conditions are ruled out, sweating may vary from patient to patient and many times there is no specific treatment required.
I would advise you to eat frequent small amounts of food and drink after eating instead of having big meals as this may cause you to overeat and gain weight which in itself can make sweating worse.
If warm tea (not too hot) does not cause you to sweat, you may try to use more natural teas (lemon, peach, etc) that do not contain caffeine, 2-3 times a day to take some more fluids in. It is very important that you keep yourself hydrated and drink enough.
You may have a CBC and ERS done if you have not done it in the last year just to make sure your body is not fighting against certain infections which may cause you to be sweating.
Sweating in some patients may be related to diabetes as well so it is important that you have good control of sugar levels (not too low and not high).
I hope this will help you feel more at ease.
