I am almost 3 weeks post op and I have been having itching spells ever since I've been released from the hospital! I don't know if it's the morphine finally giving me a reaction or what. Has this happened to anyone else?

Just means you're healing . Try not to scratch, get some Aveeno lotion, it helps

At 1st I thought it was due to healing but there are areas itching that wasn't even touched in surgery.

I know painkillers make me itch. I thought I was going crazy but if you google it, it does come up. The lower part of my face and chest will itch like crazy.

I have tons of areas - all belly- itching where there are no incisions. It's the healing. My abdomen was pulled, inflated and god knows what else. Lotion and rub don't scratch

      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! 😞
