Regular Member teach77 Posted August 1, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted August 1, 2010 Hi everyone... I'm 11 days out and last night I finally couldn't take the lack of sleep anymore and just slept normally. I definitely slept on part of the recipient area. I have no bleeding and everything looks the same as it did when I went to sleep. Could I have done any damage to the grafts by sleeping this way at this point?

Senior Member kaounis Posted August 1, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted August 1, 2010 At 11 days, you can sleep any way you want.....The only way to "remove" any grafts at this point on, is surgically. The grafts are secure usually after about 4days. Heal well my friend. Just a thought from the peanut gallery... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe after nine days or so the grafts are firmly in place it might not be an issue, especially since nothing like awry when you woke up. Have you asked your surgeon about it?
