Yes, I know what u mean about how ur scalp feels after u take braids out, the same as when u take a pony tail out, my hair was in a pony tail for over a yr while my hair grew back....
I feel great! I hope that 3 months from now when I get a follow-up MRI that my syrinx has shrunk so that I can call this surgery "successful" since I did not have a lot of chiari-related pains pre-op.
I was finally able to wash my hair today since the dressing came off. The incision feels raised so I'm hoping it's just the stitching. My hair feels nice but my scalp is sensitive. I think it might be from the nerves coming back in or because my hair was in a french braid for 8 days.. and when you take the braids out the scalp isn't used to hair being pushed the other way... does that make any sense? haha
Except i had my incision stapled also. Yours is half the size of mine. Thats awesome
Hi, i had as lil hair as possible shaved to. I also had a bandage stapled to my head. Crazy, huh
WOW, they shaved the back of my head like crazy!!! Yours looks amazing, that is very cool!!!!!
Wow I just looked at your pics. I'm amazed and so is my DH!
I hope you're feeling ok.
I saw ur pics...and commented how I am amazed at the amount of hair left....and how small some incisions are....the whole back of my head was shaved.....they brought the hair from the side up on top to a water fountain pony tail....I looked like a hairy krishna....
How are u doing?
