I had my surgery on 08/03/09 and everything is fine. However this morning I fixed white gravy for breakfast and had whole wheat bread with it. I know it was wrong but did it anyway. My questions for all of you is I am not dumping but just feel jittery and feel like I can feel my heart race fast. Anyone have any ideas on this?

Thanks for you help,
Teresa B

Too many carbs, not enough protein...possible RH. If you can check your blood sugar. Otherwise I would try and drink as much as you can to flush out the carbs and/or eat some protein to help counteract the carb-coma.

Ummm.... don't do it again?

I think it's not uncommon to make a mistake now and then. Just don't do it again.

Teresa, you are far enough out to treat yourself occasionally to a different type of breakfast, don't beat yourself up.

How long ago did you eat it? The jitters can be treated with protein and complex carbs. Sounds like your sugar spiked and dropped.

If the jitters don't subside try to eat some protein or have a protein drink. should help
