YES I dump took me long enough to find out.

I dump, too.  I get three symptoms after eating almost any sugar... heart races, feel shaky, and get sweaty.  I also feel the need to lie down.  All of this passes in about 20 minutes.  But it's a terrible 20 minutes!

 My dumping is a little different than yours. It will hit me a few hours later and depending on when I ate the sugar it will last till the next day. I just noticed my heart races thought I was having heart problems all most went to my PCP over this till I found that article on this and it hit me lol. 

i had been told and did believe sleeve people don't dump like rny but we do I think it hits the rny people faster than us but it sure can hit us. Good to know I am not crazy I would read here people saying they dump but did not believe the sugar did it. Good in a way I am like this and bad also. But I love my sleeve and I will put up with this problem. I guess it will not be a problem now for me because I will be watching my in take of sugar and carbs from now on.

Yes i dump too, whenever i eat something really high in sugar. I have had all symptons of dumping that RNYERS get. It can happen but i try to avoid really high sugar sweets.

 I sure will not be eating sugar again or at least high sugar. I only started to eat sugar in May before that I watch out and would not eat junk foods. But thinking hell I lost weight I can have cake or a cookie but I am so wrong.

It bothers me that the affect will lost so long with me though it would be over in a few hours but it will go on to the next day I feel tired and no energy. As for my heart racing or skipping that happens fast and will go away faster but feeling tired takes me longer. 

I'm from Chelsea Michigan and had surgery March 8, 2011 and have had no dumping.

Valerie thanks for posting this. All I knew is that after eating candy (OK I'm not going to lie, the whole bag) I get so sick and the only thing to do is sleep that's how bad I felt. I'm in my forth month of surgery and went through that the first 2 months until I realized how bad it sucked and laid off the candy. 

 Monica I know how you felt. Just wish I knew this in may. But thinking of it May and June this year I started to eat sweets. But July was the worst till I found out to day what I was doing lol. Like I said I only though that dumping was running to the bathroom like I do when I eat high fat foods which I did when I was 2 months out and never ate high fat foods again.

now I will be watching my sugar in take.

Thanks for sharing this and being honest! I am in the process of deciding which surgery to get, I am torn between the Band and Sleeve, and I am thoroughly reading these boards and observing how people live with their surgeries. I have several friends with the Lap band but I was not totally sold on that because two of my friends abuse it by keeping very tightly and one of my friends had a band slip and only one got to goal weight. 

I ruled the GB out because I asked my surgeon if I would have dumping syndrome forever and he said yes,  I did not want a surgery where when the party was over of losing weight and the bad side effects were still there like dumping syndrome.  I am so sorry you have to go through this, I was really leaning towards the Sleeve but this may make me re-examine my choice.

 please do not get me wrong. I love my sleeve and if I had to do it all over again I would pick the sleeve. The band has so many problems. This is just a learning thing. I will be able to eat sugar just not alot. like cake or candy. if I take a little I will be fine.

I have heard that others do not dump at all.
