Asked By:gracenoelle1977 in Los Angeles, CA

I developed a stomach rash and extreme itching from my waist up. My doc thinks I may be allergic to the tape they had on me to close the incisions so he removed the tape, gave me a cortisone shot and 5 days of prednisone.. The incisions look botched to me and the veins are just horrifying. Is this normal? It’s freaking me out and I can’t see my doctor again for 2 days.
