I think I experienced Dumping

So last week I posted a topic about ways to help me get in more cals. Someone had suggested Sunflower Seeds.

This weekend I picked up a small bag. I grabbed the ones in the shell but unsalted. I figured me having to fuss with the shell would keep me from eating too many.
Well I had about 5 and in a few minutes started to feel nauseous. I started to feel like I was gonna pass out. I ran home and honestly thought I was going to puke. But nothing. So a few mins later I was back in the potty with very loose stool.

Is that dumping? Crazy but I have never had anything like it. I continued to feel crappy for an hour and finally I just went to bed.

That's what it sounds like to me. I have only experienced that a couple of times.

It sounds like it, but from the seeds? That seems odd. Did you ingest any of the shells? Or do you think they might have gotten stuck? I don't know, it just seems like a weird food to cause dumping, but you never know.

That was me.  I am so sorry.  They are on my plan.  I got the shelled one and had one serving.  It has the same fat as peanut butter which is also on my plan.  They don't have sugar.  So if you actually dumped on them, I would suspect  you would dump on pb and must be really fat sensitive.

 Sounds like dumping symptoms, but as others have said.... from seeds??  Sounds a bit weird.  
i know I can experience dumping symptoms from non-sugar items if I eat them too fast, so maybe that's it??

It was just weird.. Im gonna try them again and see if it happens again. I was just like WHOA.

It was a pretty yucky feeling. Still boggles my mind. Seeing I have eaten things that most dump on and have no prob at all.

LOL oh well its all a roller coaster ride.

I agree w/everyone else.  Symptoms sound like dumping, but SEEDS??   Are you sure you didn't have a little excess sugar right before that which hadn't had a chance to digest?

I mixed an apple and cheese together one time and OMG, I paid for that one dearly!!  Lasted about an hour and had diarrhea.......thought I was gonna die!!

Sounds like stuck not dumping. The nausea and pass out often comes with stuck too. I also feel nauseous and light headed before I have a bowel movement sometimes.

Do you still have your gallbladder? Seeds can affect you whether you have it or had it removed. Some people can't eat strawberries because of the seeds.
