What is dumping (RNY only)?
Dumping is when, after eating or drinking, you hear or feel your heart pounding, you feel clammy, you’re sweaty, or shaky. You may also feel the urge to use the bathroom. Any combination of the above symptoms can occur either mildly or severely depending on what you ate. Some patients experience it after too much sugar usually in liquid form. Others can experience dumping from consuming large quantities of fat greasy food.
