I hear steri-strips are used frequently and i'm sure other tapes- I am allergic!

I have had surgeries before and have explicitly told the docs that I blister and itch as soon as tape touches my skin (and for several weeks afterwards). I know they put it on my eyes to keep them shut and around my mouth to keep the oxygen mask on, I also have had them put steri-strips on the wound and also had a nasty reaction. Does anyone else have this? Are there any suggestions on what would work in its place? I just don't want to deal with that along with the surgery! :)
