Digestive Problems

I'd anyone have "dumping" type issues after their RNY? I have not cheated on this diet at all and I have to make a run for it probably 5 times A day. I can't hardly leave the house because when there is an urge, it is immediate. I'm 2 weeks post op and very discouraged. I talked to my Dr's nurse and she told me not to worry about it, but she's not the one with the issue!

I sure hope it gets better for you.

In sorry your going through this! Im 7 weeks postoperative and only had 1 experience with the dumping:( I would call your doctor again if it doesn't get any better soon!

Hopefully it's just your body adapting but I would keep on the docs about it. You know your body better than anyone else.

I haven't dumped but had similar stomach issues to what youre describing. For me it happened whenever I had a Protein Shake. I have dairy problems so I used a dairy free shake and still had it. It only lasted the first two weeks an for me it was only a couple of times. Definitely ask the doc at your next visit. But know you're not entirely alone.

Are you taking about bowel movements? If that's the case that's how I am when I need to go...always but my bowel movements are once every 3-4 days but when I have to go I have to go!!

I heard it can be from an "all liquid diet" I'm beginning to think its that + all the fake sweeteners in the Protein drinks.

I think I may have finally figured it out. I think I may be lactose intolerant. The dietician said it could happen after surgery. I stopped the cottage cheese, milk, and yogurt and it stopped. THANK GOD! I hope this might help someone else if they have these issues. I was at the end of my rope.

Yes I went through this and the yogurt and cottage cheese shouldn't bother you but the milk definitely an issue. I switched to Silk and haven't had a problem since. When I first read about your issues I thought that's what it was but something must've distracted me that kept me from posting it....sorry. Also stay away from the pre made sugar free pudding...I had to start making it myself with Silk when I was still in the puree phase. Glad you're doing better though

Is anyone taking a Vitamin that isn't awful? I am on Bariatric Fusion chewables 4 times a day and they taste awful. Any ideas are appreciated.
