What makes you "dump"?



Recommended Posts

Curious to know, I know everyone is different.... Some people can tolerate certain foods more than others.. I'm 7 days post op, so I'd like to see what I'm in for.. :)

Today it was crab. But I'm also not able to do lactose post-op so that sucks too.

I am thankful that nothing has made me sick. Granted I haven't eaten large amounts of everything, but I have had bread, sugar... You name it and it didn't effect me. All people are different.

High fat stuff like a ham I got once from Patties Eggnest sent me into an hour of dumping. I never did that again and from then on shunned anything remotely suspected of bad fat. This was real ham, not the turkey, chicken or other healthier versions of "ham." It caused toilet issues, dizziness, echoing voices, etc, all after like two small bites. I think I ate this at about 6 or 7 weeks post op. I have small amounts of sugar as it is ingredient in my Protein Shake, Protein Bars, energy squares, etc. healthy foods of 2 grams or so max of sugar. This amount of sugar has never caused dumping if my experience with ham was truly a dumping experience.

I was around 8 weeks post op and I ate three teaspoons of banana pudding.< /p>

I started sweating and got sick. Thought I was gonna puke outta my nose as well.

I guess it was so rich that I cannot handle that. It was enough to make me stay away from anything like that. BTW it will hit ya quick

I've had 2 experiences of "dumping", once when I ate a banana and once when I had 2 glasses of wine.

I was bad last night after I left work late, was hungry and went to McDonalds. I got the chicken nuggets, ate them on my way home (15 min drive). Pulled in the driveway and had to run to the bathroom. Never having chicken nuggets from McDonald's again.

At least you were home. Good thing it wasn't on the way to an event or something.

      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?
