Has anyone ever developed a non itching rash after surgery? I noticed I must have been cleaned on part of my thighs with surgical cleaners (it looked yellow, I could see where it was put) but now I have red dots on the upper side of my thighs. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I've never officially been diagnosed with IBS but it does run in my family and I experience the same issues that my (brother/sister have been) siblings do and my mom used to. Will this have any affect on my surgery? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Since I'm a cash patient and going to Mexico, I don't have any classes or evaluations to do. I will have access to their NUT for 2 yrs after surgery as well as the doctor to answer any concerns. Even though it takes a lot of time for ppl going through their insurance, feel blessed that you don't have to pay cash and go out of the country. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you @@NolaNola1264 I'm such a chicken that I'm sure I will be following it to the letter and be overly cautions and even wait a bit longer before going to the next food phase Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm so sorry to hear that @stacyrg2. I really hope things improve for you. I'm worried about being one that develops GERD after too. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@fernandfj I agree it's a small price to pay but for me that has always had anxiety and panic attacks when I threw up, it's hard Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@ I'm going to call around on Monday. Great idea and hopefully I can find something. All I do is watch YouTube videos on sleevers and then I found this site. Helps a lot but I do feel stupid asking. Thank you Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Oh @@Shell that does sound terrible. Sorry Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@instant.puddin I'm on Atkins so it's low carb for me and I'm trying to think of stuff to put together. I've never been into cooking. Fast food is my downfall. I go on liquids 2weeks before mine. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you ladies. I guess it's just something I won't know for sure until I get sleeved. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
