Dumping

[lizzyshade 56]

Has anyone experienced any dumping symptoms? I'm pretty sure I have the last 2 days after chocolate Protein Drinks. Anyone else?

omg that crazy i thought i was the only one i had tried something sweet and had it i just told my dr about it yesterday and she was looking at me like it was strange

No not strange, my surgeon actually warned me ahead of time there are reports of it happening to sleevers, & it is a risk although a lot less than the bi-pass. The trick is to figure out the trigger. I think I'm in trouble if its the Protein drinks.

You are not alone or crazy!

I had it with sugar free lemon ice

I ate a mini donut about 20 minutes ago and puked my guts up. It was horrible.

My surgical team also said it's possible. Again, not really on the scale of the bypass patients. But it certainly IS possible.

My nut warned me of it as well. I'm tolerating sugar ok, but yogurt wreaked havoc. Not sure if it's dumping or lactose, but im ok with frozen yogurt? Horrid cramps, bloating galore, and in the bathroom like crazy RIGHT AFTER I ate it. Yuck. I want to smack people that think living life like this is the "easy way out!"

I ate a couple bites of macaroni and cheese and had symptoms of dumping. Weird.

Super fatty foods cause dumping with me. I ate cheesesteak meat-had an episode, and also experienced it after trying some beef hot dog. My doctors did say it can happen to sleevers.

Lots of sugar substitues can cause diahrea- similar to dumping but its just the plain ole runs.

Since we are eating & drinking lots of things with artificial sweeteners and not getting lots of fiber.... I suppose its bound to happen!
