Topic: RE: Is this dumping, the foamies, or somethin else?!
I also had my first dumping episode this past weekend and it was awful.  I had the sweats, along with horrible pain in my esophicus.  I didn't start to feel better until I was able to throw-up.  I kinda knew I wasn't able to eat fried food, but that piece of chicken was calling my name.  But never again. :-)

Topic: RE: Craving salt?? Ummmm why?
Since my surgery in Oct 20012 I have become addicted to sunflower seeds in the shell. I was told it was due to me not drinking enough water.

Topic: RE: What's going on?

I had the Gastric Bypass surgery in October 2011.  For the passed few days no matter what I eat, after the 2nd bite I get that full feeling and my stomach hurts like I've over ate.  Prior to this I was eating 1/2 to a full cup of food.  Is this something I should be concerned about.  Also, I kinda been waking up feeling as if I have a bad taste going on that I can't get rid of and needing to puke but can't.  Anyone else ever have this happen?  Thanks.

Topic: RE: Newbie
Hello, I'm a new member, but I've been a board watcher for over a year.  This board has been very informative and  helpful in keeping me motivated to do the right thing, I belong to my local support group, but encouraging others to also read the obesityhelp forums because the questions they may have, might have already been voiced here.  Just want to say thanks to all those who contribute their knowledge, research and stories, and felt it was my time to join in.

Topic: RE: Rash after surgery...
I did not have a rash, but about two months out I discovered discoloring around my healed incisions.  My doctor perscribed Triamcinolone Acetonide to see if that cleared it up.  Did anyone else have this happen if so what have you done about it?
