Dumping???
| Wed, 05-26-2010 - 9:30am |
I found out I do dump yesterday-- I have had a few episodes where I thought I might have been dumping- once on grapes. But yesterday I had not had my snack and was making homeade bannana bread (3/4 cup sugar + sugar from 3 bannanas) and I decided to lick the spoon of the batter- it tasted super sweet but I knew as soon as I had eaten it that it might cause a problem and I quickly made a protein shake and started drinking it.

From my understanding the symptoms you get from carbs are a form of dumping syndrome- not everyone gets bad diarrhea.
I was a big dumper right from the start.. and even at 5 + years out, I still dump.. And I am glad that I do!!

I'm sorry Alice! I have never experienced dumping syndrome but for most people it will be triggered by sugar, fat and/or textures. My support group leader had a major issue with textures of food and drinks. He cannot drink plain water after surgery at all. He has to flavor it with something.
My biggest side effect of surgery continues to be severe constipation. I still have to take medicine daily in addition to adding extra fiber to my diet (Fiber One cereal) and I am still in a ton of pain on a daily or everyother day basis due to it. Ugh.
I've had no issues with bacon and I did start out with turkey bacon for the first few months after surgery but then switched to regular as I am only having a strip or two at a meal.
Yay for being so close to onederland. I know for me that was the greatest feeling! Congrats to you and Wendy for being so darn close!!!

Oh my goodness I will try anything at this point. I really can't stand it. At least when I wasn't pregnant I could take Miralax everyday but now I have to take Metamucil but it doesn't really help.
Thanks!!
I take probiotics every day since surgery and haven't had any constipation problems.
