Blood vessel pop due to dumping?



Recommended Posts

I'm just over a year out of rny and I dumped for the 4th time last night. Today my eye lids, under my eyes and cheeks looked like busted blood vessels and my eye ball was kinda bloody like I got hit. Anyone ever had this happen?

That's cool that it went away but you still want to go see a doctor. Also, you will probably want to avoid having foods that could cause dumping - I know I sure do. I haven't experienced dumping just yet. On the one time I did stray away from the path by eating a soft pretzel, it didn't cause me to dump and my surgeon said that dumping typically happens with raw sugary carbs, not the more complex type. But I felt like absolute sh1t in other ways so I just don't tempt fate anymore.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
