Dumping

Hi all

Does anyone notice they are more susceptible to dumping when they are due on? My tolerance seems to divebomb!

I'd be interested to see if it's just my weird body! Lol

I am so scared of dumping, I've not had a biscuit or cake or anything *naughty* as I have a huge sick phobia, (I know that some folks dump on almost anything which I've not done)

I dump even after I have vomited! Just that tiny bit in my system is all I need, sadly. I had a Sleeve.

Hi Nicola, I haven't dumped for a while touch wood when I feel the symptoms coming on I have a slice of toast and a cuppa tea. It helps. Yes orange juice was ok at the start but if I have the 100ml it makes me dump, I can have 11/2 Weetabix but 2 and that's it. Some things as long as I have small amount I am fine with. xx Its always guna be trila and error I CANNOT REALLY COMMENT ABOUT PERIODS AS I HAVE NOT HAD ONE SINCE BEFORE MY OP. I started early menopause around 36 I am now 48 and have not had a period for 3 yrs gone JUne, so unsure really, though I get mood swings now and again. xx

Interesting post... I have only experienced dumping twice.. Once was the day before I came on.

If it happens any more (I hope it won't!) I'll see if I see a pattern

I have returned home this morning from 24hr shift and been to toilet 3 times already, crampy tummy really bad luckily pain managed to arrive after I made my bus and walk journey home. Had to take my trusty buscpan, this morning I have had what I haven't had for a while so it must be that, had a sachet of Special k nutri grain porridge with a banana chopped in it. Why that should set it off I do not know but hey who knows sometimes no rhyme and reason to it folks, no sweats though so that's a plus.
