I only get dumping if I eat high fat and high sugar combination.. I've only done it twice and I've been sleeved for 5 months second time was just to make sure I'm a glutton I tell ya

I had no idea this happened either. I researched it after first episode and learned it does happen. Since our stomachs are so small if we eat certain things, especially sugar for me, it dumps into small intestine too fast causing chain reaction.

It is a fairly minor inconvenience to pay for the benefits of the sleeve. It also forces you to eat low sugar / low fat and slower. For me, I succinctly rember it occurring after eating some ham from a diner that was too fatty at month 2. It caused about 30 minutes of "why did I eat that ham." However, it is easy to trigger also a related issue with the vagus nerve if you overeat or eat too fast. For me, this forced me to eat slower when getting used to dense Proteins. However, eating slow is something I need to continue to work on even if there are no longer negative physical reactions from eating too fast.

It's been my understanding that it is the exception rather than the rule... But still possible.

I've experienced this a couple times too. At first I figured death was imminent, but then determined that it was what I ate and how fast I ate it. I've avoided those things since then. I didn't enjoy that feeling at all.

I know what you mean. I thought for sure something was really wrong and I was going to die! It seemed to only last about 20 minutes or so but that was the longest 20 minutes of my life!

I learned that I am extremely sensitive to sugar now, and if I have something with too much sugar this happens. It scared the heck out of me the first time it happened.

I'm so confused....I thought sleevers weren't suppose to have dumping? Now I'm getting scared again! :blink:

Yes sleevers can def experience dumping as well its more common in gastric rny but we have to be careful as well!

I have actually had this happen to me, 3 times already. I am 5 weeks out. I get nauseous, heart races, severe abdominal pains. BUT my problem is that I don't go that often. It is scary, especially since I am going back to work next week.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
