Are you itchy all over, or just at your incisions? Do you have a rash? My incisions are itchy, and I think that is normal... Other than that.. Not sure.. If it gets worse, I'd maybe call your surgeon to see if it is something to be concerned about, or if there is something you can take for relief.

Are you taking any new medications? New soaps, lotions, foods? Sounds like it may be allergic reaction.

Some itching is normal. Mine itched a lot as well as it healed! Just be careful not to open any wounds, and wash your hands frequently to keep from getting an infection.

I get itchy with heat or in the sun. It has improved. I am almost 1 month post op. Mostly on arms and upper legs. If i thought about it the itching would increase. Now I try not to think about it and usually ok i walk from car to work or shops and rarely experience this anymore but this was bad at 1 to 2 weeks.

      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.
