My second one was big enough to put a fist in it, and was down to the bone.

Ive had 2 flaps done neither healed in a mnth seems like 3 6 mnths was on bed rest
But things have changed a lot since then. But Im thinking U should probably realistically look atleast at 3mnths healing time

OK, so I finally decided to go for the flap and it is on Wed. I'm really nervous. The sore is tiny but deep so he is cutting my leg to move the muscle to the sore which is almost to my butt.
So I have questions. I didn't realize how much he's going to cut me. He said he is going to cut a v then a straight line towards my knee which is a long cut. I dont have feeling but I do feel the pain from this sore and I have a bad reaction from morphine through IV so I'm scared of the pain and healing time. The doc says about a month. Have any of you gone through anything similar to this? Also the sore is on my left side and in the past my bowel program only worked on that side. I'm concerned about that as well with all of those staples in my leg.
Any advice or information I might be missing out on I would love it. My bday is July 3 and I would love to be healed by then. I am staying in the hospital one to two weeks then coming home. My neighbor who helps me with the waiver is going to make sure I have meals. She only works a minimal amount of time with me but between her and her mom, they are going to make sure I'm taken care of. THANK GOD I DONT HAVE TO GO TO A REHAB OR NURSING FACILITY. Whenever I go for testing at the hospital the staff is really nice so I hope the nurses are as well.
Oh and if you pray I would appreciate them,
Stacy
