Does anyone have experience with necrosis...either from your AN or other surgery? I recently had a BAHA magnet implanted, and I have a small circle (slightly smaller than a dime) of black, dead skin. It's been about 4 weeks, so we're far past the point of being able to do anything about it. I'll discuss when I next see the doctor this week, but do you know if it will stay like that? Or fall off eventually like a scab? I don't think there's much under there. It might even be an exposed magnet if the skin falls off. Anyone have experience or advice for me?

Have you been bitten by a zombie lately?

No zombies here! >:(
Suggestion would be to follow up with your treating team to see if they have run into this before. They may be able to advise of proper treatment for this highly-unusual situation.
