RASH - Everywhere
I have a rash that is even blistering. I called earlier and my surgeon called me back and said I was allergic to the tape. It was mostly around my breasts. She told me to take it off and put an antibotic ointment on it - so I did. It is still very itchy and now I noticed it is starting to get a rash on the incision from my TT. Should I call again?
I am in misery.

Thanks everyone. It is still pretty itchy and I'm taking Benedryl every 4 hours. I had to call my surgeon twice this weekend (and might I say that she called me herself and called back in less than a minute - I LOVE HER). She prescribed me a steroid so I hope that help. It is driving me crazy. I'd feel pretty good if it wasn't for that. She had be take the binder and the surgical bra off and put antibotic ointment on then put a cotton t-shirt on THEN put the binder and surgical bra over the t-shirt. Its helped "some" but still considerably itchy.
