What does "Dumping" mean for you?
I know what you mean, the first time I got the foamies really bad (right after I started pureed food - darned roasted garlic hummus!) I though I had a stricture or an obstruction or something was seriously wrong... it was horrible and scary. Now, I've gotten so used to it, that I can normally tell when it's going to happen so can stop eating whatever is making pouchy unhappy before I end up foaming into my kidney bowl for hours.
I dont vomit. Never had thankfully! But I "dump" my arse pretty well and quick if I eat something with too much fat or sugar. You know when you used to get the intestinal flu preop and get that "got to go right now" feeling. Thats me. When I think its about to happen I drink a ton of fluids as quickly as I can so I wont get dehydrated when it happens. Then follow it with a protein drink to keep my energy up.
So my version of dumping is dumping of rear end and its usually self inflicted.
