That could be a phantom itching sensation as the tiniest nerves heal back together, but at 12 days out everything should be closed and you should be able to put anything on them. I loved Bio Oil... still have 2/3 of a bottle left and I've taken to putting it on my face at night. ;)

I got Gold Bond Anti Itch cream Extra strength. It works well. My whole tummy itched and eventually peeled and being a guy they of course shaved me so the regrowing hair came in itchy too.

I had a horrible time with itching when my "bandages" came off. The best product that I tried was definitely,

Cortaid Cream, it has hydrocortisone in it and lasts for 12 hours.

Thank you everyone for taking the time to respond... It's any awful itching and painful feeling like you guys know. I will try the Bio Oil and the Gold Bold and the Cortaid Cream to see which one works better with my body. Thanks ;)

I was sleeved on Jan 10th and do not as yet have an itching problem, However I had a total knee replacement a few years ago. At that time a friend recommended Arnica Jell, it was wonderful for itching and as he declared it reduced the amout of scaring. It is an Herbal product. It worked well for me. good luck.

LOL, I was thinking as I read your title "sure I use it in my Decaf coffee." :lol:

Sorry I don't have an answer for your intended question...sorry things are itchy...I didn't have that trouble. I hope one of the creams recommended helps out.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
