I am almost 3 weeks post op and I have been having itching spells ever since I've been released from the hospital! I don't know if it's the morphine finally giving me a reaction or what. Has this happened to anyone else?

Just means you're healing . Try not to scratch, get some Aveeno lotion, it helps

At 1st I thought it was due to healing but there are areas itching that wasn't even touched in surgery.

I know painkillers make me itch. I thought I was going crazy but if you google it, it does come up. The lower part of my face and chest will itch like crazy.

I have tons of areas - all belly- itching where there are no incisions. It's the healing. My abdomen was pulled, inflated and god knows what else. Lotion and rub don't scratch

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
