For the last week I've been itching ALOT on my stomach and under my upper arms. My 3 incisions are basically healed and look really well! I'm not dehydrated and I just don't know what it is! And this morning I woke up and was itching and looked at my stomach and it has small tiny bumps where I've been itching?!? I don't know what to think

Happens to a lot of people. I started developing a rash I think it was almost a week out. My surgeon said sometimes people get a reaction to the adhesives and stuff they put on your stomach (contact dermatitis). I was told to take some Benadyl, which did help.

I had the same thing and heard of others as well. I think sometimes it can be from the anesthesia.

Thank goodness! I thought I was going crazy! I am so itchy in the same places and have these bumps too! They go away right? I am 3 weeks out.

I'm 5 weeks out and have developed a three inch itchy spot just below my hairline on the back of my neck & two spots the size of dimes between my breasts in the bra band area. It's driving me crazy. I've gotten hives from supplements several years ago and wondering if this could be the problem.

      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! 😞
