  1. 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

  18. 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
  19. 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
