My 1st dumping (I think)

Oct 31, 2010

Ok I am 1 day away from being 5 month's post op and I think I had my 1st dumping. I tried to make my own protein shake this morning........I am proud to say I have a VERY supportive husband who makes my shakes for me everyday but today I wanted to do it myself. I did everything right except I guess I added like a quarter cup peanut butter instead of a tablespoon and after about 20 minutes my pouch(she has a name but it's a naughty one) started to hurt and I felt lightheaded, sweaty, hot, dizzy, mouth watering, bending over pain. This lasted for about and hour and half. I never had to run to the bathroom though but I wished I would have. This was HORRIBLE!!! and I will never add that much again. I guess I knew it would happen to me sooner or later and I'm sure it won't be the last but the rest of my day was nothing but lot's of water and liquid protein so that my pouch could relax from the trauma I put it through.
On a more positive note............I have found this wonderful group of friends that meet every sat morning and what a blessing they are. I now know that I will truly succeed with the help and support that I get from all of them.
