I am 1 week and a half weeks post op. started breaking out in a rash on my inner thighs, inner biceps, breasts and feet. It's red spots slightly raised, slightly itchy. Left a message with the doctors office. Any clue???

Saturday I started my Biotin, flinestones, tums and Calcium (all of which I have had in the past at some point).

Sounds like an allergic reaction to something, I'd stop the Biotin as that one isn't a necessity and see if that helps it; if not, definitely talk to your Dr. about the other Vitamins

I have a similar rash, but only on my arms. I think I found my culprit, a new Protein Shake, Strawberries and Cream. My rash started about 6 days after drinking this Protein (I drank it everyday, I was so sick of the chocolate, never thought that I would say that lol) I've stopped the new drink for about 3 days.

I just finished Biotine and Vitamin B5 injections. Sometimes people have reactions after stopping something. Sometimes I think my rash is better, sometimes not.

Have you started any new foods?

Anyway, I think we both need to see our doctor. Good luck.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
