Hi i am 20 months post lapdorssi reconstruction. I have been experiencing a lot of nerve pain caused by the nerves being trapped in the scar tissue in my back, and small point in my actual reconstruction. I have been to the chronic pain team etc. My consultant has said i can have my abdominal fat injected into the scar tissue to sort of loosen it up so to speak the scar, it may or may not help. Has anyone had experience of it. I am in 2 minds about it. . I would like to think that it might get better by itself. The pain constantly makes me feel me tired, the only time it is really ok is when i lie on my heated under blanket on my bed. the rest of the time it feels gravel under my skin. I have full movement and a i am fully active…
