So glad I'm not alone ! Yes! My body will do it with almost everything . And it's not an everyday thing either. Some days I am super sick from anything I eat.. and other days I feel fine and it doesn't happen. And my Dr doesn't know what it could be.

Hey! I think I’m going through something similar! I’m 4 years out and have been dealing with it since pretty much the beginning! I was told it’s IBS but now my surgeon is telling me dumping syndrome... I’m like you some days ok some days so sick... I thought dumping was only in bypass surgery, I’m sleeved so that’s why it never even cross my mind! Have you managed to get relief?

Hi! Can you tell me what reactive hypoglycaemia is and how you deal with it?

it's when you have a reaction to sugar about an hour or two after you eat it. Your glucose level drops so much that you experience things like dizziness, brain fog, blurred vision, heart palpitations, sweating, and shaking. My PCP told me to eat something every 3-4 hours, and if I eat a carb, to always pair it with a Protein. Seems to have solved the problem...

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
