I am so with you on this! My wounds itch like crazy, and I know it's the $&@&€#% steristrips that are the problem, because the two incisions where the tape has fallen off do not itch.

I don't know what kind of glue is used on these things, but NASA could have used it to hold on the shuttle tiles!

I was banded 9/24... I'm extremly itchy as well!!! I have staples though :( and I'm getting a weird red rash thing and doctor thinks I'm allergic to the staples... But I do get them out tomorrow :) .. I had the glue for my c-section and it was itchy but I so would prefer the glue over staples any day.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
