Biocorneum and I don’t like each other

Well... round one of scar therapy was a bust. I put the biocorneum on my arms per instructions and woke the next morning to a massive rash. Claritin and Benadryl did nothing. Zyrtec helped some but I ended up having to take my hydroxyzine in order to get the rash to stop. I switched to silicone tape and that seems to be working better. I’ve had the tape in place since Sunday and the rash has gotten better every day. Still a small spot on my arm pit that is red but everything else seems to be healing very well.

Ten days Post Op

Had my post op appointment yesterday! Everything looks great! I have one spot in my left arm pit that opened up, but it was my fault when I rolled over in bed. I am approved for scar therapy (using silicone tape and eventually embrace). Thighs look good but are still REALLY swollen.

Operation Complete

Well, I survived! Everyone at the hospital was SUPER NICE! I felt badly for the nurse at one point as she couldn’t get the IV inserted in my foot but then the anesthesiologist came in and got it on his first shot!
I’m surprised by how great I feel but it must be the pain meds. I have tightness in spots, but that’s it.
I was in surgery from 8:15 (or at least that’s when they put me out) to 1:40 (or at least that’s when I woke). I came to very quickly and felt fine except for having the shakes (I react to my own adrenaline- it’s annoying). I was only in recovery for 25 minutes because I felt so good and I was discharged by 2:30!
I’m a bit worried that the doctor didn’t take enough off my thighs but this is likely due to swelling. I have no drains and my post op instructions are simple: keep everything clean and dry! No drains and no compression for now so all I have to do is rest!
