Hi Ron Sanchez
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
I would need more details to help you better.Anyways , from what you have mentioned it seems like Gastric reflux or Hyper acidity causing excess salivation , bloating .
How frequently does this happen to you ? How is your diet ?
It is also possible that you could be under stress and so you feel light headed and anxious.
Please provide more information as a post here or feel free to mail me.


Take care.

Orthopaedic Surgeon Dr. Aashish Raghu's  Response
You are exhibiting a symptom called Water brash, where the mouth gets filled with saliva due to acid reflux from your stomach into your oesophagus (food pipe). Headaches are constantly associated with GERD. Please get her started on PPI's by your Doctor and also address sleep and anxiety issues which also require proper management.
