Im sooo afraid of getting dumping!

Dumping is not fun. Almost everything I am supposed to eat doesn't want to go down or goes down and wants to come back up. It feels like your trying to throw up sticks. It's so uncomfortable. It doesn't feel like it does presurgey. I have never been one to throw up but I went to a restaurant with my family and had two bites of mashed potatoes and had to run to the bathroom. Some times it hits quick and others it takes a min or two. My surgery buddy n has the same issue. It's like we can't move on with our schedule of foods we are supposed to eat. But I guess what makes it ok is that food is hardly ever on my mind nor do I have cravings! And that's awesome!

I had that same problem before surgery to um that was caused by the acid reflux where my food didn't want to go all the way down and just want to come up. I still have that problem but I noticed yesterday when I reclin when I eat it doesn't do it as much.

I take zantac but it didn't help very much because I had to have surgery where they had to take apart of my stomach out due to acid reflux damage. I did all 3 of my surgery February 20th which was acid reflux, hernia and gastric bypass surgery

Zantac doesn't always work you may need something stronger protonix or Prilosec these are pump inhibitors and they be better than Zantac. You may want to call you md and ask if they can try a different treatment for you? You don't need to suffer there a lot of good acid reflux meds out there besides over the counter. I have had reflux for the better part of my life fortunately I changed my diet and took protonix and my reflux has calmed down and almost disappeared.....just a thought.
