Dumping And Sliming... Ugh



Recommended Posts

So, had a major dump session today. My tummy and back hurt so bad for awhile today that I seriously thought I was DYING. I even called my pulmonologist and tried to get in to see him. After I slimed, I felt some better, then I came home and had to climb into the shower fully clothed. I'll leave the why to your imaginations.

Lessons learned: Dont take my Vitamins without that essential mini babybel cheese and easy on the veggies. I snacked on broccoli, carrots and cheese last night...along with about six pieces of chocolate halloween candy, over the course of seven hours. Today, I paid for it. No more junk food.

You know, it doesn't take much for us to slip back to old habits. Just a couple days ago I was eating pork chops with grilled yellow squash. It was sooooo yummy. Basically, I went back to inhaling. I ate too much, too quickly and, just like you, paid the price. I was on the verge of sliming and was hoping I would throw up I felt so terrible.

I just wasn't thinking and let my taste buds take over. I wasn't hungry, but I kept eating.

But, I guess that is the joy of the sleeve. It reminds us.

I've read that Sleevers don't get dumping syndrome :/

Sounds like what I read was wrong... Why does this happen with the sleeve?

I could understand getting dumping syndrome from eating too fast or too much, but the other day I was out and about and had an egg and sausage with a friend at a restaurant. Within 20 minutes I had a dumping episode. I haven't had one of those since before my surgery 10 months ago. I have been eating eggs and sausage for months now with no episodes. Blahhhhhhhhh! I hate dumping.

Sorry to hear about your episode but your writing about it definitely helps us newer sleevers be more careful.

      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?
