Dumping syndrome: This is when the food passes through the stomach too quickly and is not digested. This beings extra fluid into the small bowel and causes symptoms of vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, fatigue, bloating and cramping. This generally happens soon after eating. There is another syndrome which occurs 1-3 hours after eating. They are called early and late dumping syndromes and are associated with a bypass.
