I am due to get my turtle neck removed this week. Yes, at 41 it has becoming increasingly tight over the last 9 mths & the docs reckon it's the only solution.
So, I'll be able to comment very shortly on the "discomfort" the doc tells me about. It's a general anaesthetic job & about 2 mths out of action according to him.
I'm a little nervous but they assure me it'll be better than ever once it's healed. Supposedly it's more sensitive afterwards.
