Staph Scars

Posted , 3 users are following.

I know this has nothing to do with Xenical but I find that I am getting really good support in this forum and I couldn't find any recent ones on here, so I was wondering I suffer from boils and the staph infection in my inner thighs and I have scars from squeezing and like theres no active ones because of the tablets I'm taking but I'm just really self concious about them and the guy I like have been talking about getting together and doing stuff but cause of personal reasons he doesn't want a girlfriend which I respect but I am worried of what he will think of the scars and I also have stretch marks and yeah any advice? Also even though I have scaring and black heads and no open or active boils or cysts does that mean its not contagious? If you need pictures I could take pictures of it.

    Sorry hun, but dont you think that is something you need to speak to your nurse/doctor about?

    As far as I am aware there are no medically trained members in this forum, the forum operates soley to aid and support members who are overweight and on Oristat and not to give advice on personal relationships or matters.

    I wish you luck and hope you find the answer to your problem x

    HI,

    I feel the same as Daisy, you should be consulting a health proffesional and receiving support from someone who knows the difficulties you face and are facing.

    Whilst I can sympathise with you, I felt very uncomfortable when I read it and do not feel it is appropriate for the Orlistat forum.

    Please go and see your GP an d get some support

    Take Care x
