Glad to hear you're doing well key, good reminder about the constipation!

I hope that your pain and swelling will go down enough that you can concentrate on your work. It's going to be tough, but it'll be worth it.

Hello Android!
I am encouraged by your comment.


POD5

pain level 4/10 
swelling++,left calf circumference 37cm. right is  only 33cm

I had some problems today.

When I received delivery, I was staggering and loading my left leg, so my pain worsened.

The load capacity of my device is about 22 kg.

The possibility that the Precice2 was broken by the load can not be said to be zero.

I would like to receive X-ray exams as soon as possible.

Today I took  Tramcet 8T a day.
The fentanyl patch which had been sticked was lost by peeling off unnoticed.

In other words, my pain killer is now just only tramcet.

Hello Key,

I'm a japanese woman living in tokyo.
I really appreciate your info on Precise2 in Japan!!
I have some questions, could you please answer them whenever you can.

1.  Is Dr Ito still working with the doctor Tobita who was working at Nishi-shinnjyuku clinic?
2.  Is Dr Ito the only choise at the shirayuri beauty clinic, or is it possible to choose of Dr Tobita, who is supposed to be more experienced in this operation?
3.  In which hospital are you staying at? I remember a several years ago Dr Ito's clinic did not have a facility to hospitalize patients.
4.  Is it true that after getting out the hospitalization, Dr Ito is only available very late at night since he so buzy with other facial cosmetic surgeries?

sorry asking so many, but I am too intimidated to ask this type of quiestion directly to Dr Ito...

Hello, chibii!

I will answer your questions as far as I know.

1. Yes

2. I guess Dr Ito is only chief operator, Dr Tobita can operate you as assistant.  But I do not know well about this, so please ask Dr Ito directly.

3. Shirayuri Beauty Clinic has hospitalization facilities in the same building.

4. I thought so, but I still do not know well because I only had one consultation after discharge from the hospital.
That time was not midnight.

If you pm to me, I may reply a little bit more in Japanese.

God bless

POD 7

Pain level 4/10

This day was the first consultation day after discharge.

I got X-ray examination, there was no problem with nail.

I have symptoms of pain and slight fever, but Doctor said that it is a general course range.
I was relieved.

I will consult the doctor again in a few days and lengthening will start.
I am a little anxious but I am looking forward to it.

God bless,
Key

POD 9

I got the stitches in my leg removed.
Wound is small and clean, there are no signs of infection.

I had the first distraction session on that day!

ERC is heavy, I have a bit of pain from compression, but the lengthening itself does not hurt at all. Great!

I lengthened only 0.25mm.

After the next day I will lengthen the leg 0.25 mm 3 times a day (0.75mm/day).

I will report again after the next X-ray examination.

God bless,
Key

POD 21

It was a re-examination day yesterday.
I took a x-ray examination.
The doctor said that the left tibia was lengthened exactly and its bone formation was also satisfactory.
I will continue distraction of 0.75 mm per day as well as the former.

I attained 1 cm of leg lengthening today ! It's a little milestone.

Although it is now almost favorable progress, I have a pain in a knee and cannot fully extend a knee.
I was instructed to perform a stretch enough by the doctor.
There are still no signs of a ballerina foot.

Is there any person who uses a knee brace at the time of leg lengthening here?

This is useful for prevention of knee Contracture?


God bless,
key
