Question:
I took something to help me sleep, it may have had sugar in it.

I took some cough syrup last night that had codine in it. I know I shouldn't have taken it to sleep, so no lectures please. I just want to know if what happened last night was dumping. It started out as heartburn, within minutes and then it started to get worse. turned into a real tightness, vomited, chest tightness, hard time breathing, back ache, and great sweating. I almost went to the hospital I was soo scared. I heard that dumping was like going through hell. It lasted for about 2 hours. Do you think this was dumping or a reaction from the medicine. I never had trouble before.    — Carla C. (posted on September 6, 2001)
