Different kind of dumping syndrome?



Recommended Posts

I have been ill almost constantly since my surgery on the 10th. At first I didn't pass gas for four days. I was concerned but after being able to have a bm, my body decided that it would only tolerate any type of food on one of two conditions. I either have an upset, angry stomach or I'm in the bathroom shortly after consuming anything.

Has anyone heard of this? Is it a normal side effect from the surgery?

Down 35 pounds since surgery though

Hi there

Your details alongside your post say surgery was 2 May - you had more? Can you update your profile - might help people to give informed responses!

I am one year post surgery. I am in the bathroom 2 or 3 times after my first meal of the day (coffee Protein slushie!) and then my bm are over for the day. But it took maybe 6 months to get that regular. I unpredictably mixed up diarrhoea and Constipation for the first few! But it seems my body fought to find a new routine...

I'm sorry about that. My original surgery date was supposed to be May 2nd. I was rescheduled a half dozen times before I finally had gastric sleeve on December 10th 2018

You're still early on in the healing process, there isn't a normal for your body yet. I would probably talk to your surgeon about it to see if they have any recommendations or insights.
