Gastric Bypass Complications
Gastric bypass complications should be considered before scheduling your surgery. Weight loss surgery is not for everyone.If you and your doctor have determined that this is the right answer for your weight problem, you should discuss all possible risks and side effects. Potential complications of gastric bypass:
The dumping syndrome:Most people are unable to tolerate certain foods after gastric bypass, especially foods with high sugar or fat content. Eating these foods can cause the "dumping syndrome," which may cause nasea and vomiting, diarrhea, a bloated feeling, dizziness and sweating. These symptoms can be avoided by following the guidelines of your dietitian. The dietitian will also work with you to avoid the possibility of vitamin or mineral deficiencies. You will need to follow up with your doctor fairly often during the first year after your surgery. Your health will be evaluated frequently, and you will be advised to continue with the specific nutritional guidelines that you receive from your dietitian. Be sure to report any symptoms you may have, and discuss any concerns with your physician. More Articles About The Risks of Gastric Bypass Surgery:
