Belated but sincere wishes that you've experienced a successful surgery (by now) and will come through this just fine with no real complications.

Well I am out and on the other side and for all practical purposes I am doing ok. Some facial nerve issues atm that the doctor is not concerned about and really my only other compliaint is the pressure bandage they have on my head. I even got them to lossen it and it still hurts. On a funny note the doctor told my wife the hardest part of the surgery was getting the fat to seal the hole up with. I apprently dont have much in the area they tried to get it from so the drain tube is a bit sore as well.

Congratulation 'postie'!  Apparently the surgery went splendidly!  I can recall hating the head bandage but I convinced my doctor to remove it after two days.  I trust your head bandage will be off soon and that your recovery will continue apace.

Greg,
Wow, posting already! You must be very fit, since they couldn't find enough fat to patch up your hole. :) Wish  I could say the same ::)
So take it easy and don't overdo it.  Let us know how the days progress. Easy on the bending over/ May cause those post op headaches.
Congrats!
Maureen

Congrats on at successful surgery!  Please do keep us posted as you progress and remember to listen to your body. 
Only had the compression bandage for my CSF surgery, it was so uncomfortable.  Hopefully it will be off shortly!
