You are SO brave Knight, having it done under a local, I'm deeply impressed.

I must agree with everyone here... you're doing incredibly well so soon. I wonder whether that's "just" you and your surgeon's skills, or whether that bodes well for DALK grafts in particular?

Either way, I hope you continue to improve at this rate.

After having a DALK as well three days later everyone said you could never tell i had had it done! Even my surgeon was impressed the morning after as it only took two nights for the redness to go.

Knight am really glad that things went well and am sure that i will catch you online soon! Have missed chatting to you ALL night!! LMAO!! :wink: :lol:

Hehe glad you were ok with me posting about you, hehe did you really think i was going to keep such good news to myself!!! :wink: As i have told John before if you don't post it quick i will!!! LOL!! Though seriously i don't add any names until i know it is ok!

Just so pleased for you and waiting patiently now to hear of your little adventure!!!!!

Oh and John, i missed your reply to this post before on brits being squeamish, are you kidding????? Men ALL suffer with life threatening flu so yes i would definately agree that as a nation we are VERY bad at over estimating our pain levels. Hehehe, not that i've noticed as a nurse obviously! :wink: :lol:
