Ok, so my stomach has been getting itchy. I Was also itchy where my c-section scar is. So, I Was scratching it and then I rubbed my nose and My finger smelled. I only scratched under my stomach where the cut/scar is. I have showered everyday since surgery so I am not dirty. I don't think this has anything Do do with the band. It's not even close to The cuts and holes they made. It looks like I have a few bumps on the scar. I have to go back to The ob but what the heck is up with that odor?! This is A first for me!

It is probably from moisture trapped in the folds. Can cause rashes/infections that have icky odors. Dry thoroughly and use a powder- baby powder does fine- just to make sure you're really dry there. Probably nothing to do with the band.

I think all the stuff they pump into you during surgery tends to leach out too.

That Lortab made my urine stink,tmi lol

Mine itches all around the port I put benadryl on it last night. It's not the actual incision but all around it and the other incision the little ones are ok. It seems to have a couple of bumps. I wonder if it was a reaction to steristrips, but it did not start right away.

Thank You ladies. Going to do this after I shower today. I normally lift up my stomach to dry under there. Maybe I haven't since surgery because I am sore. Thanks again for all the advice. I don't know what I would do without all this love and support!!!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
