Anyone crop up in a rash after surgery?

I've got one going on ~ it's not too bad, and a nurse practitioner at the office saw it today when I was getting my staples out and said the same thing.

I did look online and found reports of rashes with people on Omeprazole (Prilosec) and Dilaudid - both of which I had. Not taking the Dilaudid anymore, but my surgeon orders the Omeprazole for 3 months after surgery. Anyone else notice anything with those particular drugs?

I thought the rash I had was from all the tape I had on my skin but, I had that combo of meds as well so there's a chance that's why it was worse.

I had a bad rash from the tape. I ended up taking it off a little early.

dilaudid is pain med! Better than morphine! Dilaudid is 3 or 4 x stronger.
