Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 Been there, done that. I had the bumps / swelling. Everyone was SURE it was an allergy. It also eventually went away (6+ months later). It now comes occasionally. Benadryl can help (if nothing else, it knocks you out!). Regards, =jbf= B.

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2003 Report Share Posted October 19, 2003 yep, had that @ 3 wks out---means the incisions are healing. doc said to put a little ointment on. kinda funny, but a great sign you're on the mend. lori h. > Does/did anyone else's incisions itch like heck while healing?? Mine are sometimes unbearable. I'm walking in the grocery store and I know sometimes I look like I have fleas. Scratch, scratch, scratch. LOL I use Vitamin E oil now but this doesn't give me much relief. Any other ideas? > > Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 I have had an extremely itchy upper belly but that is it. I would try to use alot of lotion and see if your skin is just drying out on you or if you maybe need to drink more water to stay hydrated but check with your doc. I always call my nurses at the docs office if i can't get a good answer somewhere. Good Luck, God Bless, Robin, NorthEastern, NY Age- 41 EDD- July 27th, 2004 IT'S A BOY!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 The old stomach IS still working. We just dont get the benefits of it when it comes to digestion because the pouch is separated from the old stomach. mailto: dferguson@...
