So sorry that happened to you on Tuesday. Many people have issues with eggs, some can never go back to eating eggs, but most do over time.

What you had was probably not dumping. Dumping is usually a result of eating something with too much sugar (some people dump on high fat) and it enters your body too quickly, because of our rearranged intestines, making your heartbeat race, break out in the sweats, have to lie down, feel awful quite quickly. It does sound like you got the foamies which can happen when your body wants to throw up but can't like it used to do. The foamies are really nasty and can last for a while, they can also happen when food gets stuck or food doesn't agree with the pouch.

Some of the vets may want to add to this. Hope this helps.

Don't be scared, we all go through it. But listen to the vets (of which I am not, only 15 months out) when they say in the beginning don't try new foods when you're not at home. You wouldn't have wanted to go through that when out visiting or at a restaurant. I read where one lady had that happen on just a tiny piece of peach that was in a yogurt, it got stuck and she was in agony. Some have suggested trying to take small sips of fluid to make it pass. It does get easier. I can eat poached eggs, eggs over easy, but omelettes are hit and miss. They have to have a lot of stuff in them to help them slide and I have to chew really well.
