Is dumping permanent?



Recommended Posts

It doesn't matter what I eat I dump. I know it's rare but can happen with VSG. Has anyone had this and it eventually go away?

Thanks

Hey you ARE still here, I knew we were to precious to leave!

I had a few instances of it a week and half ago, it seems to have stopped.

If you still have your gallbladder, you might want to have it checked. If you don't, it could be the transit time issue that usually resolves over the next few weeks. I've never heard of dumping on everything someone eats. There might be an underlying issue causing dumping symptoms.

You can try Probiotics to see if it'll help with the diarrhea and "gut issues".

Thanks for the answer Tiff. I think I'll try some Align or eat more yogurt, between moving and dealing with healing I didn't even think about that.

MP- I've made a few good friends on here actually even though most people don't understand where I am coming from. The reality is this surgery doesn't exactly come with an owner's manual and who better to ask than someone else who had the same surgery? If you don't want to deal with me, it's easy, don't read my posts and certainly don't reply.

Thanks again Tiff.

I think part of the problem is just going so long on liquids and then trying to eat mushies. It's probably a shock to the system. I am going to try eating more yogurt and perhaps some probioitics like Tiff suggested. I know Align is a popular choice.

I am sorry you can't see past the chip on your shoulder and understand that I was making the situation light and joking about how wonderful we were here. That said, I will be more then happy to put you on ignore.

I did fine during the phase my doctor had me on liquids and then full liquids. Now that I am on mushies, it doesn't matter what I eat. I get what feels like labor pains and then I have to RUN to the bathroom to make it in time.

Even I will apologize for that, but Humor is very difficult to see online. It's one of the pittfalls of both the English language's need to have emotion set with it and the lack of some personalization on a forum.

Carrie, do you think it just might take your body time to adjust to eating more "normal" foods and not so much liquids? Didn't you say you've pretty much been on liquids for quite some time?

I've read others who have said they've experienced diarrhea early out but then it went away .

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
