itchy patches
Hi all! I'm about 2 and a half months post-op. A couple weeks ago I noticed an itchy patch on my shoulder. Then I got another patch on my leg. Now I have one on my stomach. They look like a group of bumps and are so itchy! I've started putting hydrocortisone and that helps with the itching, but my question for you-does anyone else have this going on? Does this have something to do with the surgery or is it unrelated? Thanks!
I am 4 weeks post op, and am having the same thing! I have a problem with gluten, causes me to break out, but i am not having any gluten that i know of. I have been wondering if there isn't gluten in some of my meds. Knowing someone else has the same issue, makes me think it may not be gluten related at all, and something to do with the surgery.
