Dumping???
I am 4 years out from my sleeve and today I believe I had dumping syndrome!! I got really nauseated as I was drinking my coffee like I normally do and I had to run to the bathroom only to start having diarrhea and feeling like I was going to vomit. Has anyone else had these symptoms and is this what I may have had???
Is there any ch ance you got a coffee with a ton of sugar in it, by accident? Otherwise, it couldn't be dumping.

no no sugar in it at all I get it black then add my protein shake to it to add the flavor and protein
It is rare for VSG but not unheard of at all... that said I had it so severely on day 7, yep day 7! They almost had to readmit me to the hospital. I drank too fast, just a good heavy GULP of about 2-3oz. of protein water... then BAM horrible cramp**** me, then I had dry heaves those were so severe I had a sore tummy for days, and diarrhea so bad my lower legs fell asleep I sat on the toilet so long! I had sweats so bad, worse than when I had a major heart attack even... even my prescription pain meds didn't help ease the pains... horrible! So, nope you are not alone and I have seen on youtube where long term VSG'ers have had surprise hits by it like you did.

Yeah NEVER had it before but I get my coffee black and add my protein shake to it for flavoring
I had been drinking the exact same Protein2o water for 6 days, but in my case the Doctor said it must have been how I gulped it down, just like the old days when in a hurry... not something I will do again! Hard to say why it happened to you and of course it could have been something else and not dumping, but sounds a lot like what I had and I know that mine was dumping. I hope it doesn't happen again to you (or me) it is horrible!
