soocalchic 1,087 Posted April 11, 2013 I only get dumping if I eat high fat and high sugar combination.. I've only done it twice and I've been sleeved for 5 months second time was just to make sure I'm a glutton I tell ya Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brandibandtosleeve2012 12 Posted April 11, 2013 I had no idea this happened either. I researched it after first episode and learned it does happen. Since our stomachs are so small if we eat certain things, especially sugar for me, it dumps into small intestine too fast causing chain reaction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fiddleman 4,376 Posted April 11, 2013 It is a fairly minor inconvenience to pay for the benefits of the sleeve. It also forces you to eat low sugar / low fat and slower. For me, I succinctly rember it occurring after eating some ham from a diner that was too fatty at month 2. It caused about 30 minutes of "why did I eat that ham." However, it is easy to trigger also a related issue with the vagus nerve if you overeat or eat too fast. For me, this forced me to eat slower when getting used to dense Proteins. However, eating slow is something I need to continue to work on even if there are no longer negative physical reactions from eating too fast. 1 SlimDreams reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmandaRaeLeo 2,146 Posted April 11, 2013 I didn't think so either. It's been my understanding that it is the exception rather than the rule... But still possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sharonintx 1,275 Posted April 11, 2013 I've experienced this a couple times too. At first I figured death was imminent, but then determined that it was what I ate and how fast I ate it. I've avoided those things since then. I didn't enjoy that feeling at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seemed to only last about 20 minutes or so but that was the longest 20 minutes of my life! Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Losin4good 690 Posted April 11, 2013 I learned that I am extremely sensitive to sugar now, and if I have something with too much sugar this happens. It scared the heck out of me the first time it happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sexiipisces77 27 Posted April 11, 2013 I'm so confused....I thought sleevers weren't suppose to have dumping? Now I'm getting scared again! Yes sleevers can def experience dumping as well its more common in gastric rny but we have to be careful as well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Look At The New Me 0 Posted April 11, 2013 I have actually had this happen to me, 3 times already. I am 5 weeks out. I get nauseous, heart races, severe abdominal pains. BUT my problem is that I don't go that often. It is scary, especially since I am going back to work next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
