Anyone crop up in a rash after surgery?

I've got one going on ~ it's not too bad, and a nurse practitioner at the office saw it today when I was getting my staples out and said the same thing.

I did look online and found reports of rashes with people on Omeprazole (Prilosec) and Dilaudid - both of which I had. Not taking the Dilaudid anymore, but my surgeon orders the Omeprazole for 3 months after surgery. Anyone else notice anything with those particular drugs?

I thought the rash I had was from all the tape I had on my skin but, I had that combo of meds as well so there's a chance that's why it was worse.

That's what I thought too - tape. But the np was like "Ooh, look at that little rash!" Lol

Oh, got a rash here as well. What is dilaudid?

The pain med they give u in the hospital usually. Like morphine.

I had a bad rash from the tape. I ended up taking it off a little early.

I was thinking mine was from the heparin shot in the hospital or the lovanox.....

dilaudid is pain med! Better than morphine! Dilaudid is 3 or 4 x stronger.

ONE OF THE BEST PAIN MEDS EVER!!! LOL.

The pain meds had me itching for 3 days
