Any Body Using Patches ?..... Help!

[GinaDouglas]

I had those kind of red rashes at first too, but they dimished and stopped after about 5 months.  The PDR notes the rashes as a possible side effect, but says they diminish as the body gets used to them.

It's also important that you don't put the patches on the same spot twice in a row.

Even if the patches are not as good for your skin as pills, they are a whale of alot better for your liver.

I couldn't do that anyways, I'd be afraid it would really mess my skin up.

that's what my endo says, too. Thanks!

I'm doing great on the pills, i take them sublingually which is supposed to help bypass the liver some.

The patches did not cause a red spot that diminished over a few days but scaring, and after i worked out one night was a bloody mess around where the adhesive was, a very scary event for me.
