Help, is this dumping syndrome?
Hi, I was wondering if anyone might know what this is that happened to me, as I want to ensure it never happens again. I am just a little over 3 months post-op and have since eaten stuff from cookies, to sugar drinks, chocolate bars and even apple crisp. During the past 3 months, I have never had dumping syndrome once except one time when I drank a shirley temple (and approx. 30 mins later, felt like i had the flu..sweaty, dizzy, hot, weak). Ok now heres my real question, last night I went to a restaurant and literally ate 3 small french fries with a kinda spicy sauce, and about 25% of a caramel cheescake with pecan nuts on top, as soon as i felt full I stopped (this was at 1am)..I was fine the whole night and went to sleep at around 3:30am. At around 7am, I woke up and was in horrible pain, the spot between my breasts felt like a knife was literally going in and out. Every which way I moved produced more pain, I couldn't breathe, the room was spinning, I was shaking profusely, i was in a cold sweat. If it wasnt for my boyfriend, I would've called 911 and went to the er....i have never been in so much pain in my life. Its not the same day and 12pm, and I feel alot of nausea and slight pain still in my chest. Does anyone think this could be a delayed reaction to the cheesecake or possibly something else. I dont know if this has something to do with it, but im on darvoset (a painkiller for my foot) I have been taken the darvoset for now 2 weeks, one every night before i go to sleep.
