She stated "not true at all" and told me at least 9 people in her support group have reported dumping(They have a large DS support group in NY according to her).Any who who...So I of course had to research this myself. I found this video of a young lady who had DS...She talks about her dumping eposide.Im still

Well, I think dumping is not impossible as there have even been cases of "normal" people dumping. Highly unlikely though. I think some of the confusion is that there is a difference between reactive hypoglycemia and dumping. Reactive hypoglycemia is one of the symptoms of dumping, but dumping is more that just RH. Does that make sense?
I think most people with the DS who claim to have dumping are not actually having a dumping episode (which is a mechanical problem with the pylorus or the lack thereof), but are experiencing RH.
She used to be, like, on here however after, like, refusing to acknowledge that, like, perhaps she didn't experience, like, dumping syndrome she, like, deactivated her account.
