My first surgery was June 17 and then the doctor went back in June 29 to clean the incision and remove the bone graft. (We will replace it the last week of this month or the first of August.) I'm not sure if that makes me 3 1/2 weeks post op or 1 1/2 week post op!!!
I have noticed when my husband changes my dressing or washes my back off that I feel different sensations when he touches certain parts of my back. For instance, the top upper left feels like a normal touch, but the mid to low right side almost feels as though he's cutting/scratching me when he touches there. Both places are the same distance from the incision There are other places that have different sensations as well that are hard to describe. Has anyone else experienced this and when does it start to get back to normal? (I sure don't remember this from nursing school! It's completely different when you are the one feeling the sensations!!)
