Upset stomach

Hi guys I had my RNY July 16th and there are times after I eat that I get very ill I'm not sure if its dumping syndrome or not. Today I tried egg salad mind you I have had eggs with problem but after the eggs salad about an hour and a half later I got really ill with nausea, head ache, and the feeling of diarrhea. I went to the bathroom and had a BMW it was soft but formed but I still had the stomach cramps for a long time after. I don't know if I'm eating too fast or what. I know a meal should last 30mins but it was a tiny amount of egg salad made with one egg hard to make last. Please throw me some tips I don't want to feel like this.

Sounds like dumping to me. What did you mix the egg salad with

Fat free mayo??? Usually when they take out the fat the replace with sugar. Check the label..of it had more than 5 grams that's the answer..dumping!

Could be the high-fructose corn syrup in fat free mayo. I was told that is a no no.

I guess it's going to be a learning game. The problem for me is I was supposed to see my dietician but ended up in the hospital with emergency back surgery so never got to see her. So I know I'm on the soft foods stage but really don't know what I can and can't eat yet. I feel like my intestines are always bubbling which is annoying.

I feel like I am struggling with understanding the signs I am getting from my body.

I had a terrible time tonight with dumping....my body reacts (sweating, shaking, dizzy, etc) but it holds onto the food. I just have to lay there in misery until it passes : (

Oh Em Gee... Me too! I never puke it even if I try. I just have to take it like a champ and ride it until the wheels fall of.. or until I fall out.

Glad to know I'm not the only one : )

One thing I have learned is to park my behind in the recliner for 30-45 min after each meal. Rest is crucial for me until my entire piping calms down. Learned my lesson with this one a couple of times. Not funny.

Glad to know I'm not the only one : )

I'm not a puker either. I haven't dumped yet, but if I eat something too fast or too dry I get that horrible 'stuck, gurgly' feeling. When that happens activity helps it pass faster. At work I'll pace the hallway. At home I'll cut the grass. :-)

I've never puked either , knock on wood, but my intestines are always bubbling and I'm tired of it :( I don't know if I'm the only one or what. It feels like my intestines are always angry no matter what I do.
