Sensitive to sugar

[Losin4good 691]

I have heard the debate back and forth about whether or not sleeve patients get dumping syndrome like bypass patients do. I am not really sure what to think but here is what has happened to me.

On Christmas eve we made Cookies for "santa" and i sat down with my daughter as she had a cookie before bed. I decided to have a tiny piece. That piece turned into a whole cookie. I was 4 1/2months post op at the time and quite frankly, this was my first slip up since surgery. I didn't need to beat myself up for it, my sleeve did that for me.

I threw up, hot flashes, cold sweats, heart racing, shaking, and laying on the floor. It didnt "hurt", but it was something I couldnt control.. The entire episode lasted about 20-30 minutes.

Needless to say I will not touch sweets. Ever again. Scared the hell out of me!!!

Same thing happened to me. I felt terrible after eating 2 bites of bday cake.

I still get that at 10 months out.

Had a sip,just one sip of amarula,a caramel liquer and I felt I was going to die.And it didnt happen a while after I had the sip,almost immediately I started feeling bad.Nausea,racing pulse and I was also up with a runny tummy for a couple of hours after that.

Na-a,Im staying away from sugar.People can believe what they want about do we dump or not.I do!
