    major itchy incision sites!!!

    I had the same issue! I tried Mederma and Benedryl but they really didn't work. I found some Vitamin E oil and that helped a lot! I think I had issue with the adhesive on the steri-strips. The skin peeled too. I have seen other posts regarding the same issue. Just make sure you don't have an infection. I outlined the red to make sure it wasn't spreading.

    pizza??

    I am 5 weeks out and can't eat bread. I really wanted a taste of pizza, so I took a pepperoni with some cheese and sauce. It wasn't as good as I thought it would be.

    CAN I GET "RE-SLEEVED"???

    The VSG can be the first step for the Duodenal Switch if you want to consider that.
  5. I was sleeved on 11/22/10. I had a hard lump under one of my smaller incisions. It didn't hurt. It is gone now.
  6. 34 for me, but an over sewn staple line to make it smaller.

    Protein drinks gagging me

    I'm very picky, but love the Unjury chocolate shake with skim milk and 1/4 C of NF powdered milk. 40g of protein!
