Wondering if anyone else experiences this and if it's normal. Surgery was on 7/15 no complications have lost 52 so far but sometimes when I eat immediately after or while I'm eating I get really hot, I start sweating ALOT it's really weird and makes me uncomfortable.

Input?

I do... Been told this happens when you either eat to fast, eat something your sleeve doesn't like or that it's a sign of dumping. It feels like hit flashes only magnified!! Very uncomfortable when it happens.

I'm gonna sound crazy what is dumping I always hear it?

I have the same thing. And lately it's been fairly often. Today at lunch we went to a local bbq place, and I ordered smoked chicken. This place smokes all of their meats, and doesn't put any sauce on anything. So I know it wasn't sugar causing dumping. And I wasn't eating fast at all. I've had chicken without issues before, from this same place. I was suddenly HOT, to the point of sweating. And I guess my face was red, as my family inquired if I was ok. I will be asking my surgeon about this at my appointment next week.

Dumping is when something you eat causes a sudden drop in sugar level. I'm told the food "dumps" from the stomach too fast. It can range from mild discomfort to having to lay down to prevent passing out. Some people have digestive symptoms, headaches, stomachache, sweating, vomiting, cold chills, the shakes, and it can cause passing out. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastric_dumping_syndrome

Well, i get hot after I eat too, I've never had any dumping or any of the signs of dumping. I thought maybe I was eating too fast but that doesn't seem to matter either. I doesn't last long it's just weird. Oh and I don't get sweaty or anything just really hot(I thought it was hot flashes!)

Dumping also refers to diarrhea...Extreme diarrhea ..caused by something that your sleeve cannot tolerate..Happens mostly with the by-pass but can also happen with the sleeve. Mostly fast food or carbs can bring that on.....

Interested in what your surgeon had to say about this.
