honeydue29 38 Posted January 3, 2013 Tonight I had a sugar free Popsicle and about 30 min later I felt light headed and started to get nausea. I feel miserable by the belly pain but nothing too bad. Is this dumping? My Popsicle was sugar free so if it is dumping how can that be? Any suggestions and advice would be great.. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sky 87 Posted January 3, 2013 Hmmm...could be..did you eat it pretty fast? Did you drink anything afterwards? Dumping happens when it's pushed to fast to lower intestine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrsblues 81 Posted January 3, 2013 Sometimes feeling that way can also have to do with the amount of overall fluids and Protein you are getting. Symptoms could've just coincided with eating the popsicle. Getting something stuck is having excruciating pain in the chest/sternum region sometimes helped by throwing up (usually by not chewing properly). Dumping feels more like a stomach virus, cramping, uncomfortable, diarrhea, sweats, etc.... Just as in a stomach virus the food just "runs" right through you. You might experience things slightly different but once you have both yo won't forget. It's definitely the reminders that we need sometimes to slow down and eat properly.

melynie 10 Posted January 4, 2013 sugar free thinfs contain sugar alcohols which can cause dumping. I just found this out in my nutrition class today. She told us to read all labels and try to stay away from sugar alcohols. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
