Quote from: Samuimw on February 25, 2016, 08:54:36 PM...Have been 7 months now since my surgery , I'm getting my x-rays next week. I still walk with crutches, I don't even know when I will be without them..
You did ~9cm, consolidation will take a lot of time. Just be patient.
holy sh*t! 9cm... Good luck with recovery (you did 2cm less than apotheosis)
You might have to be in those frames for 18 months. Oh boy.
bagirov never has time
samui, you need to prepare yourself for a very long recovery
the air bubbles in the knee... As long as t doesn't hurt, you should be ok
the left foot sounds like a potential problem
the ankles... If you still have ballerina, you might be have early stages of arthritis... My left ankle has arthritis, and ballerina is definitely very bad for the ankle joint
you're looking at a very lengthy recovery
Hi everyone , a little update with good news. Now I'm 9 months postOp ,when walking I don't feel my frames anymore my legs has become lighter too, I even took my first steps without aid last month (2 small steps) and since then it has improved . More flexibility . I had a very bad supination on my right foot but after walking a lot it has become much better now my ankles doesnt hurt anymore . My last months X-rays looked very straight and good callus. I had a very bad experience with a bone doctor too last month when I went to him to examine my x-rays and I didn't like him at all , he was still young and loud talking . He said he could not say an thing about my bones that he doesnt have experience in cosmetic bone lengthening . So I will contact a hospital in Bangkok that offers limb lengthening with a doctor namesd Dr.Porn-aneke. About my ballerina it is slightly better now but I still wear 1 inch lift in my legs and will remove half an inch at a time until my heels starts touching the floor.
I really want to upload my X-ray but I'm too lazy. Maybe next month x-ray .. So some of you can see how my bone is healing.
About pin infection . Some months ago when I had pin infection it was very bad couldn't walk very weak legs and so much pain from the pressure in the legs, but now when the bones are more healed I don't feel the pain at all when walking and my legs aren't as weak as the early pin infection and it usually gets away in only 1-2 days.
My feeling after being taller , it feels very good I feel more confident about myself but felt more better when I newly reached my height about 5 months ago. Now I feel like i'm used with my new height (I think I must be 173Cm.) I dont even remember how it was with my old height (164cm) .But even now it just feels like I want more and more but my proportion may look bad Ex.sitting height and arms etc.
10 months post -Op . I'm starting to recover really well , now I have started to walk 3 times a day after meals and it is super effective. Now I can walk completely without aid on flat floor, but it's still swinging hips walk. My ankles have become straighter , ballerina on my right foot is much better but my left side calf is still tight after much walking but not my left leg. My last X-rays seemed also good may be 2-3 months left, I'm still waiting for the response from Dr.Bagirov.
