oldoneyoungagain 200 Posted November 3, 2013 Please share your dumping experiences.... What happen?? How did u feel?? Was u at home or in public?? Thank u My first, with bypass, was last weekend. I believe it was caused from to much sugar. Got some mild gas pains, and then the urgent message I need to get to the bathroom. Immediately knew this was dumping, once it was over felt 100% better. Now I have had dumping experiences in years past, it comes on sudden and at times you don't have time to get to a public restroom. I always carry a complete change of clothing in my car for these situations. Mine usually occurred within 30 minutes after I have ate something but never could pin point what it was I ate that caused it. Now with the bypass I have not had the problem except this one time and I can live with that as I know what caused it. Hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samantha1 1 Posted November 4, 2013 I've only experienced dumping syndrome a few times, but I knew exactly what it was. I still do not know what I ate to cause it, but the abdominal pain, and severe diarrhea, was enough for me. My nutritionist said it may have been the sugar alcohols in a sugar free life saver. They will get you every time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mid West 99 Posted November 4, 2013 It's not dumping as such as sugar alcohols have this effect in people who haven't had surgery. It's just the effect sugar alcohols can have. ... On anyone :-) I must admit, they never have that effect on me so I guess I'm lucky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dorian 683 Posted November 4, 2013 I have dumped only once in 6+ months and it was the late dumping. It happened on Raisin Bran Cereal. I grabbed the crunch variety instead of the other box which had less sugar. I only ate a small portion for the Fiber. About 2.5 hours later I got dizzy, light headed, and my pulse and heart was going like crazy. I also was sweating profusely. It lasted about 30 minutes and was horrible! I will never make a mistake again and watch sugar and carbs very carefully! Im including a link that is very helpful in explaining the difference between the two types of dumping and their symptoms. Good luck! http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/dumping-syndrome/DS00715/DSECTION=symptoms Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
