Holy Dumping Syndrome, Batman!



Recommended Posts

For me it lasted about 45 minutes...Once I vonited it, it was gone. I had a minor foamie aabout 2-3 hours after the first one and, again, once I vomited, it was gone.

I did throw up , was sweating and shaky. I still have cramps and am belching like crazy.

Now that I have been home it's better. I have been having an issue with Protein Shakes though and that was scary. We haven't determined if I have an issue with whey or lactose but either way I have tried multiple brands, multiple types of Protein, different ways to prepare it I.e blended,milk, Water and after literally the first drink hits my stomach I'm doubled over in pain. I didn't take a single pain pill since the day before I left the hospital, I have been good not even really sore, but my husband finally convinced me to take one Friday because I was doubled over in pain crying, and sweating with chills. My first thought was am I dumping off a zero fat zero sugar Protein Shake? Then my next thought was do I have a structure or blockage? But I literally can drink everything else, eat yogurt, and creamed Soups. After Talking with the dr they took me off protein shakes and told me to attempt to advance my diet a few days early. So since Friday I have been on blended/mashed foods and it's going well! eggs never tasted so good ha ha! I mean I still have a little bit of the "what the hell did I do?" But I think as I can get in a more normal routine especially with my family and meals it will make all the difference. It's a good motivator though that I have lost 17lbs since the Friday before my surgery! Tomorrow is 2 weeks. I know that it's most drastic at first and thats fine but it's just amazing to me. I also have a good friend that had the surgery about 6 years ago and she has done amazing things! She motivated me for sure.

Did the protein shakes that made u sick have sucralose? I couldn't stomach the first year. Atkins shakes have it and it would make me dump.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
