Did I Dump?

I'm more than a year out from my surgery and while I have experienced a "sugar crash" from eating or drinking something too sweet, I don't think I have ever dumped....until last night.  I had a fruit smoothie made with berries, lemon juice and splenda.  After drinking it I developed a terrible pain in my upper abdomin, just below my breasts.  I could hardly breathe.  The only relief I got was when I made myself throw up.  Today, loose bm.  Was this dumping?

Mmmm...probably not.

Dumping includes abdominal cramping, chills and sweating, feeling of nausea and/or diarrhea - but you may have neither actually happen, followed by intense fatigue.

Others will chime in - was something stuck? Or did you drink the smoothies too fast?

Nope, doesn't sound like dumping.  Sounds more like you perhaps drank it a bit too quickly and it filled your pouch up.

nope, you didnt dump. i agree with poster above. Dumping, you wish you were dead type of feeling...much rather give birth than go through it. thats what it feels like.
