My First Dumping Experience

Jan 20, 2011

It all started with Pineapple juice.  For some reason I was really cravng pineapple.  Went to the grocery store and bought Dole Pineapple Chunks.  Boy, the juice was divine and I ate just a couple of the chunks.  Well after that everything was fine.  I sat and watched a movie, did some work on the computer and was overjoyed that I could stomach pineapple and it's natural sugars.

About an hour later, my daughter made a southwestern dish consisting of black beans, grilled chicken, spinach and pepper jack cheese.  I ate about 1/4 cup.  

All of a sudden, my tummy started making funny noises.  I even thought it was cute and called my daughter in the room to listen to it.  Then I got this terrible pain in my midsection and it was sorta hard to breathe.  I started flushing and feeling faint.  All I could do is lie across my bed and take deep breaths.  OMG it was HORRIBLE!! 

My daughter asked me if I needed to go to the emergency room but I told her no.  I figured I was dumping.  Not to sound gross but the diarrhea was next and it was SO BAD.

The whole experience lasted for about an hour or so but I never want to experience that again.  Needless to say, it will be a very long time before I try to eat ANY type of fruit again.
