Hi guys,
unfortunately I had to postpone my surgery at the beginning of December for work questions ....... so no surgery yet!! But I'm f**king scared, expecially for the Iliac bone graft.
I would like to be able go back to do snowboard at the same level, and I'm scared of nerve injuries at sexual level
I booked a apartment close to the clinic for 2 weeks, but I've still doubt if do it or not ..... I'm really scared
You sound like quite the gyrater; full hip range of hip flexibility and not just a pumper.
Although your fears are not unfounded, (they are found in the risks of the surgery) the best way to put them in perspective is to read research papers which reflect the major complication rate observed and how they are prevented.
When doing your research, don't Google s**t like 'risk of not being able to snow board and f*ck my brains out after chin wing.' Instead, Google for; 'Complications of iliac crest bone graft harvesting.'
Here's one paper. Many are there to find with the appropriate search.
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3820742/ETA: Another thing to consider is if there are others, beside yourself and the doctor, who have told you that this procedure would directly address what ever your main aesthetic problem is.
