Sounds like maybe you ARE allergic to something?

If you were just sleeved, call the surgeon. If you have been sleeved for a while, call a dermatologist or your primary care physician.

I was sleeved 12 days ago

Could be something in the pollen in the air also. I just went through that. I was staying at my step daughter's house some. Pollen was real bad out there and I broke out all over. Next thing if you have had anything to eat or drink that is red it could be the red 40 dye. I have noticed I am allergic to things I wasnt before surgery, so chance is you have became allergic to something since surgery.

About 2 week after I was sleeved I got an itchy rash all over my stomach & back... It was REALLY dry skin!!! I started using cetephil bar soap and lotion and it cleared up in about a week! Hope this helps and good luck!

You have probably become allergic to the antibiotic. Stop it, take some Benedryl and call your doctor in the AM

The antibiotics they give you post surgery can be very strong. A rash is not an uncommon reaction to certain antibiotics.. even if you've never had one before.. you need to contact your doctor.. could be nothing.. or could be a precursor to a more dangerous reaction.

A bunch of little rash bumps...like irritated and its all over my chest and shoulders. At some point...u kept scratching but now i want to not scratch because Im afraid it'll continue to spread
