Liz, yea, the skin graft sites are the worst pain, inside my mouth and from the donor site...my face/neck and skull cuts are largely painless. I'm know it was the best decision to get off Fentanyl, even though I had this surgery on deck, but the oxy really isn't touching the skin graft pain. Yesterday I maxxed out on my tylenol and Oxy limits.....today has been better.
Thanks for all the well wishes everyone, been very helpful.
