Very important to know everything that can happen.....also know that it is very uncommen in the sleeve. I have never had this happen to me. I dont ever watch carbs or sugar. The thing that would be good to try if you are having this is to make sure to avoid the foods that cause it for you.....and slowly add them back in.... if you try something and it causes the symptoms, dont have it for a while, then try again at a later date. your stomach is like a baby's right after surgery, gotta take it slow. good luck to all!

Be aware that you can also have adverse reactions to sucrolose(splenda) that sounds JUST like that! For his very reason i cannot have ANY thing with this sugar substitute. Makes me soooo ill. It is in most Protein Shakes and supplements. This could be your problem!

I too was told that my symptoms were dumping symptoms. I was a band to sleeve patient. I am 18 days out and it has gotten better. I am however still nauseous daily. I am in bed right now because I drank a Protein Shake with more milk this time and can barely function due to nausea. I notice the evening really give me a hard time.

@imanroke

You maybe right, I spoke to my nut and she says the exact thing..(suclarose) and try and stay away from anything that has more than 5 grams of sugar at least in the early stages

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
