Quote from: Thehighest on September 20, 2021, 03:41:51 PMHow do you have such huge amount of mnoey at 24 years for internal femurs?
I created my own business last year just to get money for this surgery, and worked as a slave for it. This has been my mission for a long time. Btw, I'm getting tight as f*ck.
5.5 Cm Femurs with Dr. Giotikas and G-Nail.
Your safety limits has little to do with the nail. It is how your soft tissues adapt during lengthening.
I'd say at least go for 7cm, then if you muscles allow you, up to 10cm.
My goal is just to be comfortable over 175, so I will do 6 maximum. I know I could do more, but being 180 doesn't make me more happy than being 178, so I'd rather priotize athletic recovery. Things are getting tough because of the 1.33 mm rythm for so many days. Nerve pain has started on left leg, although it's very mild. The bigger problem is that, in that leg, I feel stabbing like pain in the inner knee everytime I'm 5 min without moving. When walking, it goes away, but it's causing me problems during sleep, and I really need to rest.
Today I met all the new patients in the PT center too, good guys and I think all are users from the forum, but they are not doing diaries at least for now.

Why are you on 1.33pd for so long?

I wonder the same, but Giotikas told me to keep it until Sunday. In the left leg I may understand, but I'm a bit worried in the rigth: 6-7 mm under anesthesia + 1.33 mm for long + voltaren for a week. Could not that cause problems of non union? Anyway, I trust the doctor and will follow his advice, although it's getting tough. Tomorrow I hit 3.4 cm, and I just want to slow things down a little for my body to adapt.
Hey
2 questions V21 if that is ok
1. I heard Giotikas gives you a muscle strengthening/streaching plan prior to surgery if he did give you this could you share it? i am hoping to do operation next year and want to start getting into it now so I am ready.
2. Are you vaccinated for Covid and if so were you asked about this by Giotikas or the staff at the hospital? i guess what I am asking is do you have to be fully vaccinated to get this operation done.

Hm, strange. At 3.4cm it should be getting much easier to click by the way. Can you feel it already?
Hi I had surgery the 14th and was not going to do a journal because I thought it would not add much to what V21 is already writing. Everything he contributes is what I am using to survive but I can do one if some think it would be useful.

I think even to repeat the same information is useful.
but without any doubts you will add at least few things from yourself, so it's even more useful!
