It's been almost 6 weeks now I keep getting bouts of diarrhea all of a sudden and with no apparent reason. No this is not dumping syndrome at all and I know exactly what dumping is and what causes it. I tried to keep a journal of what I eat and I still don't seem to know what triggers it or why.. my food is what I normally eat nothing new and nothing that causes dumping. I have lost a lot of weight in those 6 weeks and went from 56.8kg to 53.3kg.. if this keeps happening I will soon be under weight.. my follow up appointment with my doctor is not until end of Feb and I really don't know what to do till then.. I also feel all of a sudden like my stomach has shrunk and I'm unable to eat the quantity that I used to eat. I'm 8 months out of MGB

My Husband had the MGB 12/2007. Same problem still. Is underweight. 282 to 156. I have been making high protein shakes for him hoping to put some weight on him. Good luck to you.

I know you said you didn't your doc appt is a little ways away but I would call them and express your concern and get in to see them.. As you said it's not normal for you and it's really not happy.. Better to get ahead of it whatever it is.. Good luck!

I have done the surgery more than 2 years ago and I still get those cycles of diarrhea , eating yogurt before going to bed helped me for a while and my bowel movements seemed normal . the thing is that I don't get the diarrhea throw the whole day I just get in the first part of day from waking up until midday I seem to loose every thing during that period and then no bowl movements until the second day
