SKIN ALLERGIES

Has anyone had skin allergies that have just recently occured after having lost weight. I have lost 150 pounds and now all of a sudden I have all these skin allergies, supposably allergic to ... laundry soap, bath soap, and many other things. I find myself itching in my sleep and becoming very sore. I have never had any kind of reaction in 50 years and the only thing I can say has changed is that I have lost weight.

No allergies but my skin is drier and I have to use more creams and lotions. It could be your vitamins - check with your doctor. I don't see how surgery could change that but then again it stops type II diabetes - I'm sure no expert. Hope you can get it figured out. In the meantime Gold Bond Lotion might help.
Hugs,
