I posted a few weeks ago abut my TT, the necrosis and debridement

and the dressing changes that followed. I got some wonderful support, and I SO appreciate it. New question. Anyone ever had a skin graft? I am scheduled for one on thursday the 15th. They will take tissue from my thigh and use it to cover the hole in my stomach. I would like any info I can get. I'm told it feels like a burn. Will it make the wound pain go away? How long does it all take to heal? I really want all this over. I'm still walking like a 90 year old women, and am starting to have problems with my back. Also, I'm concerned about my liver, because I have to take so much pain med (6 vicodin ES a day). Advice?
