Dumping???
I had RNY on 5/31 & so far have been doing GREAT! Tonight I had my "dinner" - a.k.a. chicken broth - and then about 45 mins later I decided to have some sugar-free lemon-lime jello. About 20-25 mins later I had to make a run for the restroom. I have no idea why this would have happened except for the fact that I must have eaten them too close together.....??? Has anyone else experienced this???
You're not dumping on sugar free jello. Some people dump on too much sugar, but not sugar free jello. I don't see why eating broth and jello close together would cause you to need to run for the bathroom. I would guess it was just coincidence.
Please note: I AM NOT A DOCTOR. If you want medical advice, talk to your doctor. Whatever I post, there is probably some surgeon or other health care provider somewhere that disagrees with me. If you want to know what your surgeon thinks, then ask him or her. Check out my blog.
If you ran to the restroom to vomit, you may have eaten your jello too qickly or in chunks too bigto tolerate. If you ran to the restroom to sit, check the ingredients for sugar alcohols. They tend to have a more laxative effect on up post-surgery. Doesn't sound like dumping. Dumping most often happens more quickly and includes other symptoms such as severe stomach cramping, hot flashes, cold sweats, rapid heartbeat and dizziness. I'd try to eat them further apart next time. Good luck!
