Answer:

In the diagnosis of dumping syndrome it could be find tachycardia, feeling hot, sweat, sickness, diarrhea and different symptoms associated with hyperglycemia.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dumping syndrome is a situation in which food, specially sugar, goes too quickly from the stomach to the duodenum. It’s also called rapid gastric emptying. It can be one of the complications associated to a gastric or esophageal surgery. It can be early dumping which happens 10 to 30 minutes after a meal, or a later dumping which occurs 2 to 3 hours after a meal.
