Post Op 4^th day – 13th March

Slept for several hours today. I think sleeping in my own bed with the right temperature was what I needed. It was driving me crazy due to lack of sleep. I don’t think the main cause of this was due to the procedure but the lack of air con at the hotel. Sleeping at my own place I was completely knocked out for 8 hours.

I didn’t require any pain killers, but today’s routine was take the medication as prescribed in post op procedure. Have my breakfast and I decided to catchup on some work stuff. Nope I didn’t go into work but dialled in and caught up on those pesky emails. 300 in 3 days.

In terms of the Post Op - feeling with regards to recipient and donor area as follows:

• 
  
• Donor Area - is healing very quickly and scabs are forming. Pain has gone to 2 out of 10 with the odd shooting nerve pain. The appearance looks like a crusted volcano. I hope this heals very quickly as i will beback at work on the 25th March!
  
• Recipient area - Just feels numb, with no pain.
  
• Swelling seems to be going down from the forehead.
