Biotin Itch!



Recommended Posts

Anyone else have an itchy scalp after taking their Biotin? I've only taken it for a week and my hea has been itching like CRAZY for 3 days. I haven't changed shampoos or anything, it's driving me crazy? Thoughts, advice, similar situations?

I've never had lice thank God! I even worked in the school system for a few years :) but I'm sure I don't have bugs lol. I think it either has to be from the Biotin or maybe a reaction to the colder weather. But I've lived in this place my whole life and have never had a dry scalp before. I think I'll ride it out for a few more days and see if I get used to it or it goes away.

But now thinking of lice it itches even more. Guess I'll have my fiancé check my head when he gets home lol

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
