Hey! Sorry for not getting back to you sooner, I unfortunately did not get any notifications on this post. I will send you an email this week. I'd be happy to let you know about my experience. We are the lucky ones, being so close to him!
Thanks for the kinds word everyone. Definitely a bit unusual that my procedure had to change, but I really appreciated that the Rahal team informed me of the situation and gave me the time I needed to make my decision. I was always bouncing between FUT and FUE, and having to transition to FUT wasn't a huge issue for me.
Really really happy with my outcome. I remember about 10 months post-op I walked by a mirror in the mall and was blown away wit what I saw. That sort of thing makes it worth it
Here's two more pictures to give you all another look at my current status. Loving it
