"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.

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!

      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.
