Limb lengthening with Fitbone

Edit Post

If he is one of the most experienced and has so many bad cases, the other Fitbone surgeons must be terrible.

@notimportant have you something against Fitbone? You wrote only negativ comments.
I have the feeling you are an employee of Nuvasive / Precice.

Don't feed the troll, that's all I'm gonna say.

Thanks for your message!
Going well!
I am lengthening at 0.55 - 0.65 mm per day, and that reduces that pain level a lot.
For example, today I have taken only half a Paracetamol and feel no pain.

I have heared that this actually does not slow down the process, "process" being the total time of:
1. operation and hospital
2. lengthening
3. recovery
What I mean is that if you do lengthening in 1 month then recovery will take 5 months and if you do lengthening in 3 months recoveru will take only 3 month, with the total time depending on many factors but not the rate of clicking.

I will post the videos, but I have to get my face blurred first. Hope to get this done soon.

Sounds great. I also think that when I have my surgery (most probably with fitbone too) I will lengthen slowly and not force my body.

Nice to hear your are doing fine

I'm not attacking Fitbone. I'm stating the obvious. Fitbone nails fail much more than they say. We have Helloworld, Musicmaker, the American guy...

You may be right, but I wouldnt asume MM had a nail failure, as far as I know she had an accident.

And Cooper's case seems more like he lost his trust on the doctor.

anyway, dr. Monegal seems very caring and friendly. There is no perfect doctor (I'm sure even Paley had bad cases) but as long as the doctor really cares about the patient and is willing to fix the possible issues, he will have my approval.

Fitbone is a german nail right? German people usually only make high quality products

Wittenstein has been around for over 60 years, is valued at almost 1 billion USD, is a European company (SE) with headquarters in Germany and has several thousand employees around the globe.
Fitbone is only a small division within Wittenstein, that as far as I understand resulted from the medical doctor/engineer Baumgart and Wittenstein.
