So I just had a pudding cup, 3.25oz to be exact. I wasn't even to the garbage to throw it away yet when I got sweaty, my stomach started rumbling, and I had a little bit of reflux. What happened? Anyone else have this happen to them?

When did you have surgery? Was it a sugar-free pudding cup? Have you tried the pudding before with no ill effect? Do you take a PPI once or twice a day?

It took me about 5 weeks before I could eat an entire sugar-free pudding cup by myself. I always limited myself to 1/2 a cup and gave the rest to my husband or son to finish.

Did you have a lot to drink before it or did you have something to eat prior to this?

Maybe limit yourself to 1/2 a cup next time if it is sugar-free and take your time with it.

I have had the sweaty nauseated feeling before and I know what you are talking about, I got it when I tried to eat a turkey meatball, that was 99% fat free, and was so dry it made me ill.

That was your body reacting to the sugar! Try to avoid sugar at all cost. It will get better for you. :)

I'm a week post-op and I'm on a PPI. I had two bites of it the other day too and nothing happened. It's not sugar free but I've been eating other things that have sugar in them and they haven't bothered me. I think I ate too much, but I didn't get a full feeling, I never do.

It's almost like dumping. We're not technically supposed to experience dumping syndrome, but we do after a fashion. I've done it myself. Something with too much sugar or too much fat, or eaten to fast, or a combination of those will cause it. You feel like you want to barf, but don't usually, but usually will end up running to the bathroom with the runs, sweaty feeling, like you said... very unpleasant.

Yeah I think it's because I ate too much of it because I had it the other day and it didn't bother me.

You won't get the "full" feeling for a few weeks. That's why we have to measure our food. Your body is stil adjusting to the surgery and rhe receptors that give you the signal that you are full are still trying to figure out whats going on. It's very easy to over eat early on.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
