phatfatgirl 100 Posted May 14, 2015 Oohhh good one. I'm waiting for responses. I suffer from IBS so that has definitely been on my mind since I'm going to be having the bypass done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CJFW 23 Posted May 16, 2015 Ok So I suffered from all kinds of stuff.. After sleeve I was told that there was nothing like dumping or anything associated with a sleeve... That's what I was told by my surgeon. Since sleeve I still suffer from Constipation and dumping syndrome. If I eat something to cold or with to high sugar I dump. I also have difficulties with a lot of milk/dairy. I am 5 years out so I still have issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tracywag 27 Posted May 19, 2015 I have had far less bowel issues since surgery. I have mixed IBS, and do still sometimes go between too frequent and too infrequent, but nowhere near as often. If I let myself get dehydrated, I can count on a few days Constipation. Pushing Water, sometimes adding Fiber or colace, will fix that. I have not had dumping, but haven't really challenged that fully with sugar at least (I don't restrict fat). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeahawksFan 444 Posted May 19, 2015 I am about 7 months out and have not had one single issue with my IBS since surgery. I used to have issues probably 3x a week. I self paid for the sleeve and I can say that just fixing the IBS was well worth the money. I do eat oatmeal almost everyday to stay regular with all that Protein. I also can eat anything and not dump. I am at goal weight and couldn't be happier. Good luck- LA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
