Dumping on empty stomach



Recommended Posts

I’m 7 weeks out and have the weirdest thing happening. Just about every morning I have the symptoms of dumping and this happens on an empty stomach. Vomiting, diarrhea, chills and lightheaded. How can this happen on an empty stomach? Anyone else experienced this?

it wouldn't be dumping - that's when too much sugar or fat passes quickly into your small intestine. I'm not sure what that is - I'd call your clinic and let them know.

I am almost 6 months post op, and this has just started happening to me. I see the doc for my follow up soon, and this is def a question I have for them.

Come to find out, mine was caused by taking my meds and Vitamins on an empty stomach. I eat Breakfast first then the meds. It’s cured my issue, so maybe it can help you too.

Yes, It helped me as well. Also I noticed that if I eat before bedtime, I have this problem. I stopped eating after dinner now.

Could this be hypoglycemia? (Low blood sugar)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
