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.

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!

That would happen the first 2 weeks if I just looked at something tue wrong way. I had diarrhea for 2 solid weeks and anything I drank made it worse, especially anything that was hot or cold

When I was only on liquids, everything went through me. I think that's just logical that when you're not eating bulk, no bulk comes out. Hope you are feeling well now, and good luck!
