The shakes after eating a banana
Probably a drop in blood sugar due to the high sugar content in a banana. If you really like bananas, try eating just half of one instead along with some kind of protein like Greek yogurt or peanut butter.

Could be mild dumping (it sometimes starts with shaking). Some people cannot tolerate the amount of sugar in a whole banana (although most people do t ave trouble wih natural fruit sugar). I wold try half a banana the next time.

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.
Sounds more like reactive hypoglycemia to me. It happened 45 minutes after eating the banana and you didn't have any stomach issues, right?

Reactive hypoglycemia seems to typically start a couple years post op.
