dbowers, Yes I am talking about malox the anti acid. If you pour a little in something and mix goldbond powder with it and make a paste then rub it all over the rash it will dry it up and keep it from itching as well. I also ask the doctor for diflican.. sounds like die.fluk.can 3 plls will dry it up as well. This starts out allergy then turns to yeast.. So your yeast cream should help as well. I had it a month ago on my face from tape with a sleep apnea test.. the doctor gave me a steroid shot.. Any of these sulutions will work for you.. I am also taking a benydryl. Hope this is some help to you..

Hi everyone For any older people needing lapband. Go to Beliteweight.com .If you are on social security..medicare they will get you approved and do all the work for you. the only requirement is you have to go to a Center of Excellence they will set you up to go University of Michigan. I had mine done last week. I am 69 years old.. Medicare will pay up to the time you are 70 years old. But all you have to do is go..they will handle every thing for you.

I had my surgery last week.. It was set up for me by beliteweight. They got me approved, scheduled my surgery, did all the leg work.. It all went very smooth. I went to University of michigan. I am feeling a lot of what others are. Hungry, not restricted.etc. I have never experienced the first pain. I am a little sore. I started oatmeal, creamed soups yesterday. I started boost 3 days out.. They never put me on a pre op diet. It is wonderful to be able to get on here for help and support.. I thank everyone..

You will be fine..I didn't have any pretest.I just got set up and went straight to the hospital.. Never saw my doctor until I was ready for operating room.

I have an allergy to the tape.My stomach is a red blob. it is broke out so bad and itches.. A good thing to do for it is mix goldbond powder with malox and put the paste on it.. I promise it will work wonders. I get this very often. So I found out a while back to put the malox on it. Another thing I got a shot from my doctor the last time I had this flair up..Steroids. It went away in a couple days. A Z Pack is another helper. Just passing along some of my helpers. Good Luck

Thank you so much I have a lot of questions..lol I was afraid I was eating to soon... But I was getting so hungery

can someone tell me how long before you can drive after lapband? I also am out 1 week today... I had oatmeal for breakfast and cream of celery soup for lunch and dinner..I didn't get a lot of information about surgery.. But must say it was excellent. I never had a pain.
