Good Day All:
I was wondering if anyone else is having the same issues that I am, ( I had a gastric sleeve a couple of years ago-previously had a gastric band that eroded into my stomach and it had to be removed. ). I have been having dumping syndrome on a regular basis. it is especially bad after eating breakfast. I have tried to eat a small breakfast-scrambled egg or keto toast, even oatmeal. Still most days I spend my morning in the bathroom. I am terrified to go anywhere. My doctor put me on a heartburn medication twice daily. This ended the acid reflux and slowed down the dumping a little. Now, I am living on Imodium in the morning about 4 to 5 days a week.
Has anyone had this problem and what was the solution?
