For the last 2 days when ive finished my Protein Shake, I've started sweating, jade a rapid pulse, felt the blood rushing through my arms, and been nauseous. Has anyone else ever experienced this? Im 2 weeks out today.

Yes- I thought I was the only one to have this happen after drinking one of my shakes. I didn't notice the sweating but I swear my heart pounds for 20 minutes afterward. I asked the NUT and she said it was probably dumping but I'm not 100% convinced.

Yep I think it's dumping.. I totally cheated and had like 3 spoonfuls of ice cream ( sounded really good at the time) I think the whole episode lasted about 20 minutes or so. Heart racing, sick to my stomach. I'm only 16 days out. I knew better but the old habits snuck up on me. Lets just say I learned my lesson!

I'm 6 months post op and that still happens every now and then. I've had it happen after eating spicy wings, ice cream, collard greens, etc. Sometimes it will happen and other times it wont. If I eat a Atkins bar that makes me dump for the whole day! I stay away from those but the other stuff only has me running to the toilet twice and once it's out of my system I'm fine. I don't get a racing heart but I do sweat.

I got this probably 6 times post op from either eating something too early ( for me) or eating something too fast. It is quite an experience and feels slightly disorientating with the blood rushing out of the head, ears ringing, fading to black, sweating, shaky, etc. It does not happen any more. It occurred most from month 2 to month 5. I am month 9 now.

I had this happen a few times in the early weeks. It stopped around six or eight weeks post-op and I have not had any issues since (I'm 9 months out now).

Yes me too! I'm 2almost 3 months out and this happened the other day I think because I ate too fast! It freaked me out!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
