New Member and Hubby with Dumping Syndrome

[Guest guest]

Hi all.

 

I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself. I'm 31. I work in

a chiropractic office. I am pretty healthy... I have a lot of stress

but otherwise I'm good.

 

My husband on the other hand has not been so fortunate. He's 38 years

old, was diagnosed with stomach cancer a year-and-a-half ago and had

the lower 60% of his stomach removed. Since then he's had a horrible

time with dumping syndrome and cramping. And to top it off, he was

told about a month ago that he's had several strokes (not TIAs). The

doctors checked his cholesterol and told him it was very high (260

total, 181 LDL).

 

We have tried neurologists, gastroenterologists, general

practitioners, and at this point I don't even remember what else. I've

been trying to talk him into seeing a holistic practitioner but he's

reluctant.

 

So that's a quick summary of what's brought me here. If nothing else I

am looking for suggestions on living a healthier life. If anyone has

had experience with Dumping Syndrome I would appreciate any suggestions.

 

Sincerely,

Lorene
