"Dumping Syndrome". You have found something (usually it is sugar) that goes right through. For you cheese. Wait a month and try again (at home).

This happens to a lot of people. I was only a few days post-op. Thank God I was at home!!!! LOL And it's not a common occurrence- only happened once...:) For God's sake, it happened to Al Roker at the White House! Talk about the wrong place/wrong time!

I had this happen today for the first time and I'm 6 mo out. Thankfully, there was a bathroom at the marina that I was driving by. If I had to wait 1 more second it would have been a nightmare.

Best story ever! Sadly I could have written a very similar story myself!

The sleeve shouldn't have dumping according to what my research and what my dr says. Dumping, I believe, is what people with bypass patients get. But of course I could always be wrong. However, it is common for sleeve patients to become severely lactose intolerant post op... Which could have caused the problem.

From my research, and dr confirmed, I thought there shouldn't be a dumping syndrome! OMG and I'm starting soft foods on Tuesday? I'm trembling in my boots now!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
