I know its different for everyone but if every time I have a half cup of broth and diluted apple juice and 1/4 cup of apple sauce (my clear fluid plan) I have diarrhea

Is that dumping ? How do you know and its just broth so how is it possible lol

Any experiences or advice is this normal ?

I have seen someone else have a dumping episode at our Coffee night when they drank something too sweet.  They had NO ENERGY, could not even stand by themselves.  We helped them over to the couch.  Their heart was racing and they were exhausted.  I went and got them water and we kept them hydrated to drown the sugar overload.

until you start to eat solid, don't expect to have solid BM.   Liquid in, liquid out. 

 

remember that not everyone does dump.  only a small percentage of patients do.

the experience is different, but running to the bathroom alone, is not likely a sense of dumping

umm actually you can have formed stools even if you're only on liquids. It's how your body process's.

Seebs!! lol.. you're so funny.. The first time you "dump": you're gonna know it.. Your face goes white, you sweat, you abdoman i*****hing from the inside out, you wanna pass out and for sure you want to vomit.

and those are just the GOOD signs lol.

You'll know. It's a bit different for everyone. I personally only get nauseated and sweat but I'm sure if my body could go through with it I'd be RUNNING for the toilet!

Ok that's true ... I'm paranoid because I don't want it to happen but then this clear fluid stage is BORiNG !!!! I'm serious desperate .. I can't do chicken , beef , veggie broth on its own for lunch and dinner anymore it's making me gag I called the clinic they said Dr Reed said there is no other choice and it's important for me to stay on it ... I think I have to try other kinds and only have six days to full fluids !!!
Anyone one else on clear fluids !??? I'm getting the French onion one today and will strain it but I think broth and I are over in six days !!! It's just not working it's you BROTH not ME lol
