Dumping syndrome
I don't understand why I don't have it. I had my surgery on 11/21/12 and of course with christmas and my birthday right after I had a small amount of sweets and nothing happened! I'm afraid of this, I honestly wanted the dumping syndrome because I have a serious sweet tooth. Anyone else not have dumping? Is it something I can develop later?
Only about 30% of RNY folks dump. But if you only had a small amount of sweets, you may not have eaten enough sugar to cause dumping, even if you do dump.
You understand that dumping makes you really, really sick, right? So why were you eating things you thought would cause dumping? You wanted to feel terrible for a few hours?
