Re: surel nerve graft
I was 41 when I was diagnosed and I had a RP performed in Texas on 3/7/02. I lost one of my sural nerves and had the sural nerve graft procedure performed at time of surgery. The doctors here have performed this procedure numerous times. I am an avid runner and the numbness in my leg/foot does not bother me. The dr told me it takes 1 to 1 1/2 years before the nerve graft takes effect. Since I am so young, I am happy I had the procedure done. Plus, I was lucky a dr so close to me does the procedure. Good Luck!
