Installing height- Programdude's Precice 2 Internal femurs with Dr. Paley

if paley says you should see him...  then seeing him is the only option

Doing a lot better. To those concerned by my serious complaints after the weekend that involved a lot of walking- I think it was just a bit too much and built up over the days. I'm doing much better now, to the point I think no one that saw me when I was out today even batted an eye.

I did a hard leg workout, once I recover from it I plan on practicing jogging. Jogging feels really weird with much longer legs right now.

For those wondering, things like stairs haven't been a problem for awhile.

Progamdude, the last x-ray image you posted was on October 06, 2014. Would you please post some x-ray images after that, like in December, February, and April?

wow what a great news!
from 1 to 10 (10 is being like you were before the surgery) where do you consider yourself in term of recovering?

I'd say probably a 6 right now, at least until I can jog acceptably. My walking itself is probably an 8 in the sense that unless my legs are tired and someone is trying to see something amiss with my strides it looks normal. The main issues with the walking at this stage is endurance, which really isn't that bad for anything that comes up in my day to day. At the gym I can walk with a 45 pound plate in my hands, but walking two 50 pound dumbbells to a bench would still be damn hard and mainly look silly.

It is very good news.
I hope you better and better .

Thanks. Gonna attempt jogging again today but my faith is not too high. I would be surprised in a month though if some size, strength and the jogging was not back.

My recovery has taken awhile but the improvements have come fast since I started walking.

Hi Progamdude, the last x-ray image you posted was on October 06, 2014. Would you please post some x-ray images after that, like in December, February, and April, so that we can see how the bone consolidation progress is? Thanks

Edit Post

I haven't felt the need to update with that as I am past that phase, but I may in the future.

have you seen the broken bone gap have been filled with new bone from the x-ray? How is the new bone's density look like in the x-ray?
