    Hi, I'm considering a HT and have noticed that most post HT meds include an anti-inflammatory drug and a blood thinner such as aspirin. I have severe bowel problems and would be unable to take either of these. However could still take the antibiotic and painkillers I believe. Has anyone else been in a similar situation?

    I will inquire with the reps when looking into booking, but worried they might just say its fine when it might not be. Thought I would ask here just in case. Any info would be great appreciated. Thanks!

    If it's not the clinic's own Dr giving the advice then I would seek the medical opinion of you're own Dr/GP. 

    It's a subject that needs to be addressed by a professional.

    Dear Community,

    We have selected two members of our board/consul. Please join me in congratulating @A_4_Archan and @Gatsby. Both of these members have experience and knowledge. We have two more positions to fill, which will complete our board. I'm preparing to create an outline and criteria to help @Al, formerly BeHappy, and me create checks and balances. 

    Good choices, it's building up to be a impressive group!

  3. Ok so this reads like a advertisement, you haven't even mentioned when it was done, the grafts numbers, what method was used etc. 

    I kinda have to agree with the above, it's good you're pleased but it doesn't look like a particularly great result. 

    Do you have more pics? Post op and then the subsequent months? These are clinic based pics you're showing us, let's see some real world ones.

  4. Yes the river like lines you mention are perfectly normal at this stage. 

    Despite the reputation the Dr/Clinic has, this does not look to bad at all! Seriously you went with the Dr option and he was actually involved. 

    It could have gone either way but from what I can see initally I just dont see any particular concerns. 

    We can all go overboard with trying to prevent people taking any of the risks associated with Hair Mills, but they will of course have more than the occasional decent result. In particular when a Dr has actually been involved. 

    We could say you lucked out, but compare this to even some of the better known/regarded Dr's and it wouldn't look out of place. 

    Of course with the obvious exception of what I can actually see going on in the crown area, am I not seeing how it ended up? As there are literally some very scattered grafts implanted which would make no visable impact whatsoever...

  5. The list was created to advertise certain Dr's that are willing to pay the fees. Don't listen to any one person or totally trust any list, regardless of who's saying it. 

    Same for the recommendations here, it's a guide and not a exhaustive list of the only Drs that should be considered. 

    Sure they can all be used to gather information, but there are plenty of sub par Dr's on every single one of those Abbreviatied lists, yes even here on this forum. And plenty of the elite that are not. 

    As always it's actual patient results that matter, and those that can actually be seen! Do you're own dillegince on who's doing the best work here in the UK, trawl as many results as you can find for each Dr.

    I would like to see how moderator @Britanio he changed his nickname often, but I think it is the same person, a person who knows the world of transplants well , who has been here for many years (I’ve been here for 5 years, but he was already here when I arrived). Who knows if he’d like it though ? 🤔

    Thank you @ITA yes I have slightly altered my username every so often, Yes I have been here 12 years+ and although I wouldn't be interested in being a mod I appreciate it the nomination. The panel/counsel of users though does interest me.

    Currently my username is @Britanium 👍

    Thanks buddy for your quick response. To have it clear 100 procent. A graft lose always comes with bleeding right? So no bleeding after 10th day no graft loss?

    Grafts are safe and secure after just a few days, if they were dislodged during this time then yes you will nearly always see some very evident blood loss, usually a long trickle. So baring in mind you saw no blood loss and you're now at day 10 then yes you're absolutely golden 👌
