Need help/scared

I had gastric bypass a year agro, all went well and I didn't have any complications. I rarely dump, only when I overeat or eat to much sugar, but that would only be like once a month at most.

I just ate some cheese (no light version) and after that I started having heart palpitations with a heart rate around 135 bpm. I read that you can get that as a dumping syndrome but this is new to me, I always watch what I eat and rarely dump and when I do it's only some light discomfort.

I'm feeling really uncomfortable right now, I'm kinda scared especially seeing I have such high heart rate and my chest hurts. But that's normal right, no need to see a Dr?

Dumping does feel like that and it isn't just from sugar. It also can be from fat. If you are really worried call your Dr. Just to be safe. Sorry this is happening. Take care

Yeah and I had some normal cheese which I normally won't eat so, my heartbeat has gone a bit down, but I'm still not feeling well. I think I was panicking what made it feel even worse. I really felt like I was having a heart attack, the more I focused on it the worse I felt. I'm just lying flat on the couch now and it's helping a bit, I don't think I will ever eat normal cheese again. I'll tell my gp next time I have to see her just so she also knows and I'll see what she says. Thanks for answering.

I am glad you are feeling better. When that happens you do feel like you are having a heart attack. I sweat get dizzy and feel like I am going to throw up. I'm over 4 years out and you would think I would learn my lesson!! LOL Also, I never know what will do it sometimes. LOL Have a great one!!
