Sorry man, that's rough. They say video games are as good or better than painkillers btw, no kidding.

I must say, that is one prime-looking cut of meat. Those "Alive" guys didn't know how good they had it!

Where did they take the skin from? I would imagine off your behind...how's that feeling?

Good luck and I wish you a speedy recovery!

PS - post some pics soon of the fasciotomy and of the graft :)

They took the skin from the inside of the same thigh. i'm very glad they didn't take it from my butt because it feels like theres a flame up to it constantly.

yeah, hopefully somewhere from the same leg. I really don't want them to take it from my one working leg.
