Have you DUMPED yet...

I saw this question on the NOV board. I thought it generated interesting convo! I have DUMPED: I was released from the hospital on antibiotics. But, the pharmacy gave me horse pills instead of liquid. So, I crushed a pill and took it. BIG

I dumped for the first time last night. My PCP prescribed a liquid form of one of the meds that I take daily. She didn't realize that each dose of the suspension contained a large amount of corn syrup. I felt pukey, very sleepy, shaky, my heart was racing, I just felt awful. I ended up laying on the couch for most of the night. Glad I haven't dumped from eating anything though. I'm avoiding sugar and excess fat like the plague. Hannah

Becky, I am not sure if it qualifies as dumping, but for the past few days I have been throwing up a lot. Today for example the only thing I had in my system was water. I all of a sudden started to burp and with is also came fluids. I did not get sweaty, although I was very shaky. I hate it, and do not know what could have caused it. Melissa

Nope. Not yet, hope never.

Hi Becky; I have dumped. It was like 3 days after I came home and I was eating Egg Drop soup and I thought that I would try to put one of the crispy noodles that come with soup from chinese stores in it. I let it get soft alittle but I guess it wasn't enough. All of a sudden after I took a spoonful, my stomach started cramping up, I got hot and sweaty, nauseated but didn't vomit. I had to walk around for a few minutes and then I needed to lay down and that took place for a few minutes and then I was knocked out sleep for the rest of the evening. My sister who's a nurse came over and took my blood pressure and it was extremely high but I knew it was because of this dumping. By the next day, it was back to normal. I just know that I don't want to go through something like that again! JaNae

Not yet...thank goodness. I have, however, had one day where I was feeling rather naseaous and keep spitting up this foamy saliva stuff. I couldn't even keep water down. That lasted several hours and disappeared as suddenly as it came about.

I posted this some time back on the main board. I had not done 64ozs in a day. I was going to make my self do 64 or die trying. Key word DIE I only had 8oz left to go for the day. I made a protein drink. I was already too full and kept pushing the drink. I read liquids pass through so no problem. WRONG WRONG WRONG. After I finished the protein I thought I was going to die. Stayed in bed the rest of the night. Some days still don't make 64 and I don't worry about it. I am drinking more each day.

I spent my first week home living in dump city. A few times from eating too much-too fast (when will I learn?), another from eating noodles - bad me!!!!! All times it happened it took about 5 minutes after the last bite to kick in. I got sweaty, shaky, naseaus, and had to immediately head for the bathroom! Dumping gives me serious diarrhea, then I miraculously feel better.... I am slowly getting it through my thick skull and lately have been able to prevent this from happening!

I sure have. I started salivating really bad, then came the dizziness and then the DRY HEAVES. Whew, that is really painful. First time was on whole milk...I should have known better. Second time was a smidgeon of BBQ Pork (don't know if it was the pork or the BBQ sauce but I haven't tried either since)

Nope, not yet and hope I never do. I am very careful with what I have. I just tried applesauce a couple of days ago, it was unsweetened but had 9 grams of natural sugars. I was terrified to try it but I tried two spoonfuls and did great.
