dumping syndrome and weight gain 5 years post R-N-Y
I don't know what is going on here. My weight was stable at 110-112 for 2 years or so. Now I am up to 121 and my clothes are getting too small.
I started having dumping syndrome about a month ago. Came on very suddenly.
Has anyone else had this type of experience and, if so, what can be done about it. I have an appointment with my gastroenterologist next week. Should I see the weight loss surgeon to see if I need a revision? I also have had ulcers twice.

I seriously doubt a surgeon would do a revision for a 10 lb gain. I would set up a visit to see what the dr. Thinks you need to do. You may just need to get back n track. It's not too hard I'd you follow the rules you followed right after surgery. As far as the dumping, have you started eating more carbs and sugar? That would account for the dumping and going up in weight a little bit. Hope you get back on track. Being off track isn't fun! I've been there and done that.
