Dumping Symdrome

I had my first bout of dumping syndrome and I must say it is not pleasant. I know what the possible cause was and believe me I won't have that again.

Anyone else having or suffering with Dumping Syndrome?

My nurse practitioner said we absolutely CAN get dumping. I get it. Mine is associated with too much fat. For the first several months whenever I ate dinner outside of my house I immediately had to lay down...chills, rapid heartbeat, bathroom visits frequently. It's subsided a little now, but I'm a lot more careful of what/how much I eat while away from home. Some docs say this does not happen outside of the bypass, but there's no other name for this.

Yes, I do - and I'm over a year out.

There is some new research into this. Where they THOUGHT it wouldn't cause it, they are now finding it does cause dumping in most cases.

I am fine with non-refined sweeteners like honey, coconut sugar, etc. But refined white sugar and corn syrup are what really get me.

Nothing fatty or fried for me. Only took one lesson to teach me the hard way. I never did throw up but I walked around holding it back for 2 hours. Ugh it was awful. Can have a bite or two of sweets but not a lot. No bread or I am in pain. No seafood anymore as it tastes downright awful to me now. Lettuce ....... I may as well eat it while sitting on the toilet.

But, if you look at what I listed, it's nothing to be overly upset about. It's things I shouldn't be eating (minus the seafood) anyways.

Oh this is Well Said!!!

I mean, we might 'mentally miss' some foods, but we can live without them, right?
