Hi! So after buying a ton of vitamins off if amazon(few hundred dollars worth☹️??) I realized I just can’t deal with swallowing or melting them in my mouth? I decided to purchase the patches on patchmd after all. I read great reviews on them. This is my first day trying them. I bought the Bariatric 2 set(4 patches) and put 2 on left higher arm, 1 on right higher arm and one on right side of stomach. The ones on my arms burn a bit or feel sensitive. Has anyone experienced this and is it ok?

I don’t have any burning, i often wonder if they are working :) i put mine on my thighs, the glue was too good and sometimes would pull the skin off on my inner arms

I am day 7 post op. I just ordered the vitamin patches as well. I will have to let you know when I start trying them. My skin is very sensitive so I hope it works out for me. I too couldn't see ingesting another thing.

I love the convenience of them. Also not having to take a handful of supplements.

Let me know it works out for you guys! I want to try it but im skeptical if it actually works or not.

I use the ones I bought from Bariatricpal. I have sensitive skin as well. I put them on my stomach...for no particular reason than I can easily reach There is residue from the adhesive sometimes, but all in all doing great. I added the Biotin because I was losing SO MUCH HAIR. Got me back on track and now I have to keep up with my hair dye because its growing quickly!

I ordered those too. I am expecting the delivery today, but I won't start until Sunday. I was thinking of trying my hip first until the stitches come out. One less thing to worry about in the stomach area!! I added Biotin as well, thanks for the information. I also purchased Biotin shampoo to help prepare for the hair loss.
