I'm sorry to say, Topview, but Condor's experience was the same as mine. If I could recommend anything it would be to try to keep in close contact with your doctor, once a week at least, to keep tabs on your progress. I waited a month to wash off my scabs which happened during my first follow up. My doc said, 'Oh, you could have washed those off two weeks ago.' That would have been very nice to know, but again, my fault for not staying in closer communication.

I've heard one can wear a cap. Here are my thoughts on that.

I didn't want to risk damaging the grafts, but at the same time I would be very anxious about the back of the cap rubbing against the donor area. That area is going to be pretty raw for a little while and needs time to heal up. Again, ask your doctor and stay in close contact with them because what works for one patient may not work for all.
