Well im in my mid 20's so pretty prime as to doing this surgery. But in general, doc said I had average bone growth.
I do think the surgery was around 1-2k. Probably just had to pay for hospital fees which isnt that much for an outpatient surgery. Likely surgeon/anestesia fee is waived. No walking restrictions, i should walk as much as I can on the walker. And continue to stretch as much as possible

Interesting! I hope you won't have any other issues till you're done lengthening 
Lol same. I really wish to be able to walk normally during November and put an end to this journey.

U can continue to do lengthening with the new nails?

Why wouldnt I be? That's the whole reason I even got the new nails, else I'd just consolidate at 60mm. The issue was the old nails with the crack was probably going to get more unstable as I lengthen so it wont reach 80mm. I replaced that broken nail and started lengthening the day after surgery.
Stay strong brother. You got this.

Hell yeah man. To all those who actually did the surgery and not perspective patients 1 year out. We're all in this crazy journey together and need each other's support. We'll get out of this a better version of ourselves. Good luck to you too sir.
