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)

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
